3D Map of Xiamen?

[zhouhana]

Where/How can I generate a 3D map of Xiamen as seen in the pictures below?

My Chinese is not very good so I can't read what the watermark says, and the URL is too small for me to see.

Also, are there any other 3D map services covering Xiamen?

There is a KML file for Google Earth available here:

(I haven't checked it myself, no promises).

The files you gave as examples look like they were from Google Earth originally, and then artistically retouched as well as labeled.

I think the watermark in the "What's on in Xiamen" link says: www.appletravel.cn

Attached is a "raw" piece of Xiamen from Google Earth for comparison.

Thanks for the KML file, I'll check it out!

The www.appletravel.cn watermark is only on the last picture. I don't think the images are originally from there. If you look closer, all three images have another, smaller watermark. I'd love to know what it says.

Edushi.com (E都市). Try putting your addresses into that search box and see what you get. Make sure you've selected the right city.

Thanks roddy, that's exactly what I was looking for! This forum rocks!

That is pretty awesome eye-candy.

I have to say, though, I have a difficult time using it to actually navigate around. That could be because I'm not as familiar with the city as I would like to think I am; do others find it actually useful compared to the 2-D view?
