What is it?

iTowns is a Three.js-based framework written in Javascript/WebGL for visualizing 3D geospatial data.

It can connect to WMS/WMTS/TMS servers including elevation data and load many different data formats (3dTiles, GeoJSON, Vector Tiles, GPX and much more). A complete list of features and supported data formats is available on the wiki.

It officially targets the last two major versions of both Firefox, Safari and Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, ...) at the date of each release. Older browsers supporting WebGL 2.0 may work but we do not offer support.
