Tip: If you want an area at the highest resolution possible (zoom level 20), but the area you want is to big to fit in the screen....zoom out until your area fits in the screen, then hit L. This will lock the viewport and now you can zoom into 20 (you wont see it zooming in, but just do it), and you will see it start downloading all the map tiles at Zoom level 20, for your entire area! Then when finished, hit E like in this video.
@@mboyd6 Yes it's handy to know. There are probably some limitations with it, in terms of the size of the area. Limitations imposed by either Google or your machine specs. But I have found locking viewport at 17, then zooming to 20, works fine. If I go below 17, it sometimes works, sometimes crashes Blender. If I need an area that big I just do it in sections, and join it together later in Blender (Core i7 laptop, 16gb ram, 512gb SSD).
@@BH-dsk Yea that's what I was thinking with doing it sectionally. I went as low as 22x zoom but I didn't see much if any difference in quality after 20x. I managed to cover quite a bit of land thanks to this technique so I won't have to stitch planes together as often. I'm trying to recreate my town and surrounding suburbs so I can put it into a game I play and I needed high quality reference images to go off of
I did something like this 20+ years ago: USGS data massaged into a file format that POV-Ray could digest. Most of the time went into writing the macro to convert the files. Now I'm running Blender 2.90 and life is getting better all the time!
That makes flight simulator 2020 even more impressive. Being able to automate this kind of process and produce decent results worldwide is almost unbelievable
Wow, I had no idea GIS and Blender were compatible. This is mind blowing! GIS is really unstable software, so being able to just import it into a free program like Blender is an absolute game changer!

Please give a followup after 5 months. How has that turned out for you? In my personal experience, starting to use blender was akin to a manually-powered rollercoaster: the initial learning curve was like having to push the whole train to the top of the main hill by yourself, but as soon as you get used to the control scheme and the basic shortcuts and the existence of (oh my god the best thing in the world) the spacebar menu/search, suddenly you're breezing through the work and all of the modelling becomes 10-30x faster and smoother than in any other modelling tool. What's yours experience, and the experience of your team?
@MidnightSt Ok, my answer is not what you expect. I got this video in my recomendations when I was searching for VJ Loops, I don't even have blender haha. Sorry dude, I might try it in the future
@@killspiritproject it's free! you can just download it and do the tutorial. you don't have to become a 3d animator, being in the habit of doing random tutorials will give you powers

This is a treasure finding this video. Big thanks for uploading this. This is exactly exactly exactly what i needed this past week. You have no idea how useful this is. Golden, big thanks.
This is great, thank you for making the video I never knew you could do something like this, I have been slowly building a map of my town in blender for like 3 months now
Beautiful. Around 4:08 it is like a slice of something organic or an organic circuit board of sorts. The way the roads cut through volume of the buildings is great.
I've been messing around with this for a bit, it doesn't really work for smaller towns, not being able to recognize quite a lot of houses, but thats to be expected with a satellite image of a middle of nowhere town. For big cities like new york or tokyo it works like magic, I could imagine 5 to 10 years from now running a single script, it scans and builds a map like this, but also compares the scale and silhouette of the buildings to a library of skyscrapers and streets and swaps out the blocks with high resolution buildings.

I use Blender very regular and must say this is one of the most impressive parts I have seen from it. I only have 2 questions, What version of blender are you using? And what kind of specs on a Desktop/Laptop do you need to run it? Thanks for the video BTW :)
(not a lawyer) gpl3 applies to the use of the source code of the addon, not to the products created with the tool, those are yours to keep. However you'll need to look into the licences of the map datasets, before you can use those. I know at least the Google Street view images are limited in use. If anyone has looked into this further, please comment further.
@@1ns4n3ed If I didn't misunderstand it, in this demo video, the photographic base image was Satellite imagery (but (c) Google? it appears you could start off with a different choice) and not really "there" any more in the final scene; the elevation data is from NASA surveys and therefore PD, I suppose; and the buildings are based on openstreetmap and quite ... open
now see i can animate in peace now, you just need to do a tutorial about interiors in houses and im good to go to create my 2f animation without worring about making a 3d,love that thanks bro
It crashes Blender a lot, but it still manages to be fascinating and potentially useful. I've been playing with it recently after seeing this video; thanks for introducing me to it.
So this has been in my recommended for half a year now. I study Geoinformation. This Semester I have a course where this will come in EXTREMELY handy. So thanks youtube for being so annoying with your recommendations I gues... And you for your video :D
"Overpass query failed, ckeck logs for more infos. " this mistake appears after my attempts to get OSM data. For different locations and scales. Logs are clear btw. Could you help me with that?
It's using SRTM data, which is 30m resolution. Each pixel of the height map is 30 square meters of real world space. It'd be cool if it could be set up to use the same sources as terrain.party, which pulls from a bunch of different things.
yeah the data itself is lowres so you are kinda stuck with it. unless you get a couple of references and get your hands dirty sculpting terrain. Have Fun :D
After messing around with the plugin I figured out that the big reason the SRTM is stepped is because the plugin doesn't turn Interpolation on in the settings for the texture datablock. If you turn it on it smooths out the height transitions nicely. To further improve it you can edit the plane and do some loop cuts to get it to even squares, and then subdivide it a few times so there's more geometry for the subsurf modifier that gets added when you use the get SRTM function to work with. You're still ultimately limited by the low resolution of the height map, but it'll give you much better results.
I'm having trouble installing mine it never shows up like at 1:00 where I can click the box. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also thanks for making this video dude! It has opened a world of ideas for me lol.

@@adamkoubek7576 It works only through direct import of OSM-file, however. But you have to go to OSM site, select the area, export it to osm-file and then import it using this addon in Blender

A person who lives in London I can say this is very accurate on blender and also I cna recognise its in London waterloo and Westminster Station and the river Thames
for those who doesn't seem to work (No imaging library available. ImageIO module was not correctly installed) 1st step: open this link: github.com/imageio/imageio-binaries/tree/master/freeimage 2nd step: pick if FreeImage-3.15.1-win32.dll or FreeImage-3.15.1-win64.dll but mine is 64 3rd step: open the zip folder BlenderGIS-master\core\lib\imageio esources\freeimage note:(the freeimage subfolder must be created) 4th step: add it again in preference then it will work It worked for me
This is a fantastic video. Big ups for the tutorial. I am using BlenderGIS for importing building heights but I find that the buildings heights imported via OSM are not true to scale. Did you find this for your projects?
Thanks for crisp and clear video! I tried this on several residential areas but can't get to show building heights of homes in suburban areas. Any thought? Downtown areas work great.
Wow thanks for that interesting . . . just one thing, how do i export the entire scene with texture? (at this point not worried about building textures, just landscape)
For my site in Bacoli, Italy the Get OSM using "elevation from object" produced building masses startlingly too tall. For example, a one story house with a flat roof that measures 3.4m above grade in Google Earth measures 17.8m by using BlenderGIS with Get OSM. Moreover, the OSM footprints are inaccurate approximations of what one can easily see in Google Earth are different footprint perimeters. Finally, as others have noted, the building height profiles are non-existent. You get simple cubic volumes, not at all accurately shaped or sized. It would be safe to say one could produce better results from merely eye-balling an aerial photograph.
For anyone wanting to give to ago! Just tried it out and it works amazingly, I used to live in a smaller town so i used the map area for that, And it pretty much got every area right, Although using it in bigger more updated cities seems to work better from a little testing. For a free addon this is 100% something you should at least try out as there is so many uses for it! As for myself I wanted to make maps for a friend so now I can model them after real areas :) Thank you for the video!

this is mega cool, this is gonna save me a lot of time.
Wow! Yes incredible! Thanks so much for sharing this.
damnit, I needed it like 4 years ago
A person who lives in London I can say this is very accurate on blender and also I cna recognise its in London waterloo and Westminster Station and the river Thames
You're a legend!!! This is just what I needed!
for those who doesn't seem to work (No imaging library available. ImageIO module was not correctly installed)
1st step: open this link: github.com/imageio/imageio-binaries/tree/master/freeimage
2nd step: pick if FreeImage-3.15.1-win32.dll or
FreeImage-3.15.1-win64.dll but mine is 64
3rd step: open the zip folder BlenderGIS-master\core\lib\imageio
esources\freeimage
note:(the freeimage subfolder must be created)
4th step: add it again in preference then it will work
It worked for me
where can i find the textures used for the landscape?
brilliant.
what do i need to do to get it to save properly.
after a reboot my buildings and roads are higher than mybasemap
This is a fantastic video. Big ups for the tutorial. I am using BlenderGIS for importing building heights but I find that the buildings heights imported via OSM are not true to scale. Did you find this for your projects?
This gives me lot of ideas. Thank you.
THANK YOU!!! I've been looking for something like this!!!
Thanks for crisp and clear video!
I tried this on several residential areas but can't get to show building heights of homes in suburban areas. Any thought? Downtown areas work great.
Thankx man this add-on helps alot specially for site plan
This is awsome. I've used things like Sketch Up before, but it seems have better effect.
This amazing! Bro, u r a pro!
Wow thanks for that interesting . . .
just one thing, how do i export the entire scene with texture? (at this point not worried about building textures, just landscape)
i was literally right about to add buildings to the map i was making, thank god i found this before i did anything other than finish the roads
For my site in Bacoli, Italy the Get OSM using "elevation from object" produced building masses startlingly too tall. For example, a one story house with a flat roof that measures 3.4m above grade in Google Earth measures 17.8m by using BlenderGIS with Get OSM. Moreover, the OSM footprints are inaccurate approximations of what one can easily see in Google Earth are different footprint perimeters. Finally, as others have noted, the building height profiles are non-existent. You get simple cubic volumes, not at all accurately shaped or sized. It would be safe to say one could produce better results from merely eye-balling an aerial photograph.
3:07 " Get elevation (SRTM) is now forcing you to get the appropriate API key. Have to figure that one out.
Hi Mr. Niko, I managed to download the complete meshes by following ur instructions but pls tell me how to texture this complete city.
Wow extremely useful to design quick maps
For anyone wanting to give to ago!
Just tried it out and it works amazingly, I used to live in a smaller town so i used the map area for that, And it pretty much got every area right, Although using it in bigger more updated cities seems to work better from a little testing.
For a free addon this is 100% something you should at least try out as there is so many uses for it! As for myself I wanted to make maps for a friend so now I can model them after real areas :)
Thank you for the video!
