From the project READMERemotion Maps
Choose exactly one technique from the intended shot, then load only that technique's TECHNIQUE.md.
Every technique directory is self-contained and may be removed without breaking the others.
Static map
- Requires you grab a satellite image and mount it in a
<Img>tag, and animate on top
Mapbox
- Requires a Mapbox key
- Nicer styles by default
- Map can display a round globe when zoomed out
- Includes nice 3D buildings such as the Eiffel tower
MapLibre
- Requires no API key, fully free
- Does not include 3D building
MapTiler
- Uses MapTiler
- Annotations can be drawn on top of geographic features: borders, rivers, labels
CesiumJS
- Flythroughs through terrain and mountains
- "Flight simulator" perspective
