Nice!

I'm working on something similar but aimed at visualizing GPS tracks, e.g. for hiking and biking: https://cubetrek.com/view/6638

Let's share some notes, if you're interested! Code is open source: https://github.com/r-follador/CubeTrek/

Nice, I'm the founder of Ayvri (acquired) we were doing 3d virtual scenes for lots of different use cases. The Tor des Geants used our 3D map for their event one year, it was one of my favorites to see in 3D.

The publicly available stuff is gone now, but there's still a grainy poor resolution video showing what we used to do.

Oh cool, I made something similar but for making a styled graphic rendering of a ride/run/trek: https://riderender.wilsonspearman.com/

Thanks! You inspired me to try babylon.js. You may also recognize the background image.

I'd love to compare notes.
