summary: 'Explore central Warsaw in voxels - slightly inspired by Minecraft, and MagicaVoxel. You can change the date, time of day and weather, explore the city, or click on a pedestrian to control them (here a bit of inspiration from Dungeon Keeper). Works best on desktop, but I tried to make it usable on mobile too. The initial load can take a while. It''s based on several open datasets, including: - OpenStreetMap (https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=6/52.02/19.14) - buildings, streets, sidewalks, tram tracks, etc - GUGiK / Geoportal (https://www.geoportal.gov.pl/) - LiDAR for building heights and trees, aerial imagery for colours - Warsaw''s city tree database (https://mapa.um.warszawa.pl/) - individual tree species, used for seasonal foliage Open-source (https://github.com/stared/warsaw-vibe-voxel), so feel invited to (re)use it as you wish!
