swisstopo VR is a VR game for Android and iOS. It shows locations in Switzerland as photo and model representation in 360°.
It is by the Swiss Federal Office of Topography (swisstopo).
swisstopo has been investigating how its 3D geodata, in particular its landscape model of Switzerland, swissTLM3D, can be integrated and visualised in a game engine.
swisstopo VR uses the game engine Unity.
swisstopo’s 3D geodata
The following swisstopo 3D geodata sets have been prepared to assist the development of the swisstopo VR app: swissTLM3D, swissALTI3D, swissBUILDINGS3D 1.0 and 2.0 and swissNAMES3D. The product swissTLM3D is a detailed and comprehensive topographical landscape model of Switzerland which includes both natural and artificial features as well as name data in vector form. swissTLM3D is highly accurate and incorporates the third dimension, making it Switzerland’s most precise and comprehensive 3D vector data set.
