Agency9 3DMaps is unique in offering high performance real-time 3D on the web, without the need to install specific plug-ins. Using Agency9 3DMaps geoportal developers are free to visualise any common map data and meta information in a map view.
- Agency9 is pleased to establish the partnership with GEOINFO and to deliver 3DMaps as the platform for the 3D geoportal service.
