Showing you how to make a topographic map also known as a contour map in minutes for laser cutting designs. This is the quickest and easiest way I've found of being able to keep vector maps like this of anywhere in the world.

That’s fantastic! Do you have a site that would include bathymetric lines?

If you cut out each contour you can actually build a nice topographic map for real!! Same can be do e for underwater lakes but its more difficult to get the data....

I need to develop a 3d vector map (2000mm X 1000mm) of a large geographical area to be carved by cnc in mdf board. could you please help me for design?

@A3Kr0n 3 жыл бұрын

Can you do something like a Boolean intersection of the map with the circle to cut the map perfectly to the circle?

@Keep-Making 3 жыл бұрын

If I was in a 3d program like blender... Yes... I would be able to do a simple boolean to do that.

Why doesn't this show water depth? I don't like that it leaves the water blank, do you know of anything like this for lake depths?

@danielss77939 3 жыл бұрын

That's really great, but, for some reason, roads and labels are not appearing for me... The option is selected, but no luck. I'm struggling to find a specific location without these.

@Keep-Making 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Daniel, It can be a little tricky to see things on the map. I have not really worked with roads and so on. This is also starting to show it's age a bit. I wish I was able to help you out more. If you are willing to learn new programs there is an addone for blender called BlenderGIS: whish is pretty powerful. I might make a video about it at some point.

@grootjnr Жыл бұрын

I have the same issue. Seems on my PC the names and roads don't show but on phone or tablet they do lol weird

@MakerTales How do you so easily remove the lines outside of the circle? have been breaking my head on this for 2 days now. Still can't find it.

@rosskellogg8633 8 ай бұрын

Draw a selection box with the direct select tool (the White arrow) press delete and everything in the selection will be deleted.

@grootjnr Жыл бұрын

The website doesn't show place names on the maps for me? Tried everything lol cannot get the place names so it makes finding places SO hard. Any suggestions? Thank you
