Ask HN: What JavaScript libraries should I use to create an interactive 3d map?

2 points by agnivade 10y ago ↗ HN

I don't need to access geo-location data. Lets say I want to create an indoor map of a house.

I have a data model of the dimensional data of the house(length, breadth, height, rooms ..etc). What should I use to create an interactive map to show the house ?

I have mainly decided on using d3 and threejs. But I don't have any experience in this area and would love to hear opinions from you guys.

Check out Esri's Javascript API, the 4.0 Beta supports 3d geometries. Though not sure about displaying an indoor map.

Main page: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/beta/

There is also the CityEngine Web Viewer, though not really a library: http://www.arcgis.com/apps/CEWebViewer/viewer.html?3dWebScen...
