The purpose of the project is to aggregate and make digital maps and related GIS data available for free. Licensing: CC-BY-SA 2.0 GPSies.com: Google Maps tool: Gives coordinates for places, names, elevation/height above sea level on Google Maps (reverse geocoding).
The APIs provide functionality like analytics, machine learning as a service (the Prediction API) or access to user data (when permission to read the data is given). Another important example is an embedded Google map on a website, which can be achieved using the Static Maps API, [1] Places API [2] or Google Earth API. [3]
The position and height of each benchmark are shown on large-scale maps.

Google Building Maker was a web application that allowed users to build three-dimensional buildings for inclusion in Google Earth. [1] Buildings were created using simple three-dimensional shapes combined with aerial photos.
A heightmap contains one channel interpreted as a distance of displacement or "height" from the "floor" of a surface and sometimes visualized as luma of a grayscale image, with black representing minimum height and white representing maximum height. When the map is rendered, the designer can specify the amount of displacement for each unit of ...
New building regulations that came in force in 2020, limited the height of buildings on cities depending on population in China.
