 Maps may show almost all the datasets and objects that are visualized in 3D as well as some external data types and Web Map/Feature services (WMS/WFS). Maps in GeoScene3D show data in layers as in full featured GIS applications like ArcMap or MapInfo. Map windows are used to overview data, view and move camera and light source positions, and to move the current 3D scene extent. A map containing a few layers of nation wide data makes a good overview map. Bitmaps from map windows may be exported automatically to 3D surfaces. Maps may show almost all the datasets and objects that are visualized in 3D as well as some external data types and Web Map/Feature services (WMS/WFS).
