It's a shame that it requires a business email just to try it out. My work doesn't have anything to do with city building but I'd love to use this to create a 3D model of my home town for my own fun.
- fartcannon 4y agoThere's a blender plugin that will let you import 3d map data including buildings and trees from google into blender and then do whatever you want with. https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS https://github.com/eliemichel/MapsModelsImporter https://github.com/eliemichel/MapsModelsImporter
- mcluck 4y agoHey, hey, this looks great! Thanks!
- InefficientRed 4y agoYou can use any email address that's not gmail, icloud, yahoo, et al. Just register a cheap domain name and point its DNS records at a free email provider (or setup an incoming mail server... outgoing with getting labeled spam is the hard part anyways)
- slowhand09 4y agoGood to know. Unfortunately, my business email IS a gmail address.
- TheaomBen 4y agoIf you'll allow a shameless plug: I'm about to publish a python package to help doing just that, by combining photogrammetric projects. The workflow is take a couple hundred overlapping pictures, compute a model using an existing backend and store the image/3d data. Rinse and repeat. When you have a few neighbouring projects, we recompute submodels at the boundary and merge the involved 3d models by reprojection. Currently wrangling some issues around packaging, a BSD licensed functional prototype should be out sometime next week. I'd love to get some users or eyes on it, do get in touch!
