small part of Downtown.. looks cool but instantly one wants more, especially if you know what this city can offer today and how rapidly it's changing its landscape!

There are quite a few such other projects, e.g. Streets of Prague (https://beta.streetsofprague.com/), were one can explore Prague in a top-down GTA2-like mode, based on real data.

It'd be cool to see these taken to the next level by showing actual live updated public transit and car traffic

Nice. At first glance looks cool, but then, oh my, some areas are really butchered :S Poor Old Town and Plac Zamkowy - I'm familiar with the area and at first was scanning trying to find it visually by the features I know are there, but then in this model it's very different (wrong color, many more floors in this model, a 20-story building where at most should be at most a 5-story, the old town castle looking like a gray residential 'blok' and not the prettier structure that it is!).

I think you're looking at something else, because the Old Town isn't on the map at all. Unless part of it failed to load for me.

A very natural question.

Not a Minecraft player myself, but if you want to do so (code is there), feel more than invited.

Mobile version reloads, imho it is too heavy for Safari.

Well done.

As default weather - I would prefer sunny day instead of rain…

Yeah, it is a bit heavy, but I had to balance features and performance without adding too many toggles that push choices onto the user (often when it is already too late). I optimized it primarily for desktop, with some ideas for making it lighter on phones (rendering only small parts in 1m3 voxels and the rest in gray 8m3 blocks).

When it comes to weather, I am torn between always using golden hour with a clear sky and using the current weather.

It was raining when I opened it. Is that tied to the live weather?

It's really good, and responsive in Firefox on my android tablet.

For the longest time I wanted this as the interface for a Local News website I was participating in. It was impossible at the time but I hope it will become a thing. Sure beats HTML tables with text and pictures.

Except this website chokes many desktop PCs, not to mention phones.

A fragment of Śródmieście (the downtown center of Warsaw). The Old Town and most of the right bank (including Praga) are missing.

In any case, very fun. Hope it improves.

Really impressive. The autumn trees and the golden hour light make it feel alive, and the landmark labels are a nice touch. Fun to fly around the city centre.

A bit unfortunate it doesn't reach to the Old Town, or even Royal Palace. But impressive stuff nonetheless!

Good point! I've already expanded the area from something much smaller (so to go to the National Stadium and so on). The first draft is easy, since Opus 5.5 is good at working with open data and checking against it.

What takes much more time is polishing. Sometimes things are jagged or wrong, streets are disconnected, some tree crowns float in the air, and bridges look like they’ve been hit by an airstrike.

I check things manually, compare them with photos, etc.

Is it raining, or are those rendering artifacts on a fractional scale monitor?

edit: it is raining!

Yes it's raining, you can change the weather on top-left of the website
