I built PeakAtlas3D to bring global topography to life using an interactive 3D globe and localized terrain elevation data. You can instantly jump to a summit and view its exact physical profile from any angle.
I’d love your feedback on:
Performance: How smoothly does the 3D terrain render on your device?
Features: What data point or tool should I map next? (GPX route uploads, route difficulty tracking, etc.)
I’ll be here all day responding to your thoughts. Thank you for checking it out!

A 3D terrain profile is such a cool idea for visualizing climbs. One thing that would really help me as a user is being able to overlay a planned route on the terrain and see the elevation gain along it, instead of just the peak profile. Maybe let users import a GPX file or click two points on the map to draw one.

@neriman91088467 ya I'm currently working on adding popular trails, and im trying out how users can add there own overlays

Love how the peak page keeps that same Mapbox camera angle when you drop into the 3D profile, it really sells the transition from orbit to summit. Big fan of the silhouette shading too.
The way you tied Mapbox's globe to per-summit 3D terrain profiles feels really well considered. It saves you from bouncing between apps when scoping a route.

@yunusbhm thanks, rending between frames was annoying but I figured a workaround for the transition cut

@furkanankalanw thanks the camera angles can get tricky.
