TopoPrint Builder

Create full-color terrain packages for online 3D print services.

1) Pick Location

Search results can zoom the map; when an exact OSM boundary is available, Add includes it in the model and Remove subtracts it.

Search-result boundaries choose add or remove per button; rectangles and ellipses follow the mode above. All shapes stack into the shape list.

2) Water & Sea

No selection yet — pick an area in step 1.

Smaller islands are removed — or flattened into the water base when it is on. Dropped land shows gray and dashed on the map (approximate).

One printable slab of sea connects every piece of the model — no gaps, no holes.

Homogeneous paints all sea one water color sampled from the imagery — clean and print-friendly. Satellite imagery keeps the real ocean but can show capture seams; the map preview's water tint follows this choice.

%

Extra sea around the coastline, as a share of model size.

3) Sources

This source is baked into exported color textures.

4) Model Settings

Choose mesh detail independent of print size.

x

Select an area to estimate how visible vertical relief will be.

No tracks loaded.

0 keeps every track point; higher values simplify the path for cleaner printing.

Output is always a closed, full-color OBJ package sized for online service upload.

Notes

  • Google Satellite is not bundled because of licensing/API restrictions; use a custom URL if you have rights.
  • Some providers rate-limit requests. Reduce detail if generation fails.
  • Upload the downloaded ZIP to an online 3D print service that supports textured OBJ color models.
  • Reference labels overlay is preview-only and is not baked into exported textures.
