I'm wondering where it is getting the data for the high-resolution buildings? For example, Big Ben at the Houses of Parliament in London has a detailed model, and so too does nearby Westminster Abbey, and several famous structures nearby. https://demo.f4map.com/#lat=51.5006147&lon=-0.1253329&zoom=18 https://demo.f4map.com/#lat=51.5006147&lon=-0.1253329&zoom=1...

It looks like there is a JSON[1] mapping OSM (id's?) to textures[2] and a .bis file which I believe is a 3D model format. This is super impressive. I've been working on shademap.app for the past few years and they've implemented it's main functionality as an afterthought.
