Contour relief, in three dimensions.

A new way to keep a place: real elevation data, drawn as fine engraved contour lines and tilted into a live 3D relief you can orbit by hand — the same real data a topographic map uses, none of it invented. Drag the scene to see it move, or search for your own place below.

Real elevation contour lines, 20 m interval — no satellite imagery. Vertical relief exaggerated 1.6× for legibility (real values, scaled uniformly).

This preview renders real elevation relief for any place you search, at a fixed camera angle. The full product — choosing an angle and ordering a print — is still in development.
