Create a globe map with 3D terrain elevation

Show a detailed 3D (three-dimensional) globe map with terrain elevation. Creating a 3D terrain globe view of your map requires only two lines of code. Simply include the projection and the terrain option within the map constructor.

Enhance the authenticity of your web mapping applications and data by using the globe projection and incorporating terrain relief into your maps. This will provide a greater sense of realism and depth to your visuals.
