Shinjuku Station: A 3D Visualization

This project provides a three-dimensional representation of Shinjuku Station, moving beyond flat 2D layouts to a spatial model.

🛠️ Development Process

The creation of this model involved the following steps:

  • Source raw geospatial data
  • Process indoor mapping coordinates
  • Render 3D geometry

📊 Data Provenance

The visualization was developed by modifying specific datasets provided by the Japanese government.

Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT)新宿駅周辺屋内地図データGeospatial Japan

Source Attribution: This work was created by processing the "Indoor Map Data around Shinjuku Station" provided by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

📐 Technical Implementation

To transform the data, the spatial coordinates were treated as vectors in a 3D Cartesian system: P=(x,y,z)P = (x, y, z)P=(x,y,z)

The data pipeline can be visualized as follows:

The underlying data structure follows a format similar to this:

{
  "location": "Shinjuku Station",
  "dataset_id": "mlit-indoor-shinjuku-r2",
  "dimension": "3D"
}
