That is a quite a nice way to explore a city, a middle ground between regular maps (too abstract, no sense of height) and detailed/realistic street view.

Ohhhh very nice.

We should figure out a good game to play with it. Like adding transport infrastructure or you need to achieve X time reduction in commuting times.

Nice!

This is super nice! It would be very interesting to share some details on how it was made. Good job!

Love it. I was just living in Valencia for the summer. But I still did horribly on the landmark-guessing game.

I saw a couple of these on Twitter in the last 24 hours

But this one is particularly detailed, very nice!

I'm sure it wasn't the first, but the one that got a lot of traction was from about nine months ago - the isometric view of New York City.

Dense development right up to farmland. Something you will never see in a US city. Not surprising that Valencia is 4x as dense as Atlanta even though Atlanta is 5x more population.

Most of it probably, the description says it's a isometric render of 3d data that is then restyled with a model.
