REAL PLACES. YOUR STORIES.

Create your own 3D map

Turn your hometown, a mountain range or your neighbourhood into a model for 3D printing. Add your own GPX route, choose the shape, size, colours, frame and lettering, or assemble large wall art from smaller tiles. Buildings, bridges and trees use available map data, with more detailed sources in Czechia and Slovakia. Preview your model and download STL or colour 3MF for free to print on your own printer.

Find your place

Search for a place or select it on the map.

Map selectionVyberte místo

Click to move the area. Zooming the map does not change the selected area.

km
0.2 km200 km

Metres and kilometres set the ground area, not the viewing height. Set the print size in centimetres in the Size step.

U území nad 8,5 km se zobrazí reliéf a případná GPX trasa. Pro budovy, vodu a cesty zvolte menší výřez.

Vlastní trasa GPX kolo · běh · turistika

Nahrajte svou trasu a uvidíte ji na mapě. Výřez se přizpůsobí celé trase.

Barva trasy

Vyberte jeden z filamentů. Jeho odstín změníte v Barvách.

GPX se čte v prohlížeči. Při uložení projektu nebo objednávce se uloží i trasa. Trasa je také součástí exportu 3MF; časy a původní výšky bodů se nepřebírají.

Your house on the map

First search for and select an address with a house number or a specific building.

02

What goes on your model?

Keep the recommended selection, or choose the features you want to see.

What to show on the model
How features appear on the model

Minor paths are switched off by default. When enabled, they are lower and narrower than roads. Shared walking and cycling paths are classified as cycleways; cycle lanes on a road remain part of that road. Tunnels are hidden. The elevation map cannot reconstruct underground caves, overhangs or openings in rock.

Terrain is always included. Only features available in the map data are shown. Tree count depends on scale and printable space. Mapped meadows, built-up ground, rock and sand form smooth coloured surfaces. Parks inside cities retain the terrain colour. With fewer colours, some parts share a filament; see the Colours tab.

In Czechia and Slovakia, individual trees also use their mapped OpenStreetMap positions. Available leaf information or a recognised genus determines a broadleaf or conifer shape; otherwise a generic rounded crown is used. Available height and crown width are adapted for printing. Illustrative trees fill forests according to their mapped type. Trunks are reinforced and embedded in the terrain, with crowns designed without horizontal overhangs. Trees that do not fit or clash with other features are omitted, never relocated. This is not a complete tree inventory or an exact botanical model.

03

Your place in color

Choose a style, then adjust individual shades if you wish.

Choose a colour style

Make the colours yours

Highlighted house

The house has its own colour. It can also share a shade with roads or another model part. It keeps its own name in 3MF.

How colours are applied

Built-up and other ground means the surface around buildings and terrain without another mapped classification. Meadows, forests, water, roads, rocks and sand have their own categories based on map data. These are not colours from aerial photography.

With filament assignments, set your actual filaments and choose one for each part. Four filaments can cover green meadows and trees, blue water, grey buildings and roads, and white ground and sides. Without assignments, the original automatic group merging applies.

Lighting and shadows in the 3D preview affect how a shade looks, but do not change its saved colour code.

3MF contains the final part colours. Assign them to filaments when importing into your slicer. STL contains only the shape.

05

Frame and text

Add a personal touch. You can also leave the model without a frame or message.

Sides and rim
mm

3–100 mm from the bottom of the frame, including its backing if present. The top edge is level; the landscape can rise above it.

The frame has a level top edge. It is included in the print dimensions.

Settings have changed. Check your map selection in the Place step.

Flat preview of placement and size. In the final map, the inscription follows the terrain.

Enter a place name or a dedication. The label is optional.

Print size

Choose the finished print size. For a larger picture, combine smaller tiles.

Pro skládaný obraz použijte poptávku obrazu na míru. Rozměry a provedení domluvíme společně.

Print footprint 150 × 150 mm

5–40 cm. Overall size including the frame.

×

Each side is 5–40 cm, in 1 mm increments, including the frame. Width runs west to east on the map; depth runs south to north.

Print shape

Settings have changed. Check your map selection in the Place step.

Choose a picture size. Build it from equally sized square tiles.

Size of the full picture

Custom dimensions, printer and connectors

Adjust dimensions here for a different picture shape or a specific printer. The tile count and size will update.

The margin applies to each edge. Allow room for a brim and purge tower in your slicer.

Insert keys by hand into recessed pockets from the back. Tapered edges guide them in; they do not extend the footprint. Pockets require a base of at least 8 mm. Check clearance with a small test print.

Tile layout and assembly
Tile layout · north ↑ · front view

Print tiles at 100% scale and assemble them using the row and column labels. All tiles share the same height origin.

Hills and base

The flat option levels the landscape. Buildings and selected features remain above the surface.

The base is the bottom layer beneath the landscape.

True proportionsStronger hills
Total print heightAfter the model is createdCalculated from the landscape and the chosen size.
06

Ready for printing

For a standard 0.4 mm nozzle, you can keep the default settings.

Use the same layer height in your slicer. Small buildings and the colour skin are at least 3 layers thick; very fine details are enlarged or omitted according to your choice.

Preparing your model for printing

Permanent piers remain part of the print. Temporary supports are generated by your slicer and removed after printing. Suspension bridges need support for the deck and fine details.

Narrow buildings and towers adapt to the nozzle and print size.

Forests use a coloured surface; small areas can also have trees. Roofs in covered Czech selections follow the ČÚZK surface; elsewhere they use available OSM attributes. Without usable data they remain simplified. Roof colour can be set separately. Small details are adapted for printing.

Colour layer and material use

Only the top skin is printed in colour; the model body uses one colour. The skin allows at least 3 print layers. Choose a thicker skin for less opaque filament.

Large models need more memory

On a phone or a device with less memory, start with an area of 500 m to 1 km. The browser may interrupt complex models. If this keeps happening, use a computer.

Memory-saving mode reduces terrain detail in both the preview and the print file. For the most detailed terrain, create the model on a computer.

Horseshoe Bend

USA · 3 × 3 km

Horseshoe Bend je mimořádně výrazný meandr řeky Colorado nedaleko města Page v Arizoně. Řeka zde téměř obtáčí mohutný skalní ostroh a vytváří ikonický tvar podkovy, který je perfektně čitelný shora i na 3D modelu.
