Cities and terrain
3D Map Generator
Build a printable 3D map from a city, neighborhood, region or terrain area. Tune buildings, roads, water, markers and relief before export.

Into Something
You Can Hold
Pick the workflow that fits your idea — a printable 3D map, a GPX-based trail model, or clean poster wall art. One studio, three outputs, real-world map data.

One studio, three map outputs
The tools share the same real-world map foundation, but each mode keeps the controls focused on the final object.
Hikes and GPX routes
TopoPrint 3D
Import GPX routes or plan a hike, then create a terrain model with trail geometry, distance, duration, elevation gain and optional snow.

Poster and wall art
Map Poster Studio
Design clean poster and wall art compositions from real places. Use the same map data workflow when the result should be printed flat and framed.

Built for routes, not just places
The hike workflow imports GPX files, fits the map to the route area, calculates distance, duration and elevation gain — and lets you overwrite those values before they get printed onto the model.
Privacy note
GPX files are read locally in your browser. The route geometry is used for the preview and export workflow without uploading the file as a stored project.
GPX import
Import a recorded route and jump the map directly to the trail area.
Dynamic scale
Choose the printed max edge and adjust the footprint on the map.
Terrain relief
Terrain height adapts to the selected print size and elevation range.
Editable caption
Override distance, duration and elevation gain before export.
Examples
Same map data, different objects
A city becomes a clean architectural model. A hike becomes a tactile route. A meaningful place becomes framed wall art.
Workflow
From place to printable file
01
Pick the mode
Choose a 3D map, GPX trail model or poster workflow.
02
Define the area
Search a place, import a GPX file or draw the exact map footprint.
03
Tune the result
Adjust shape, scale, terrain, captions, route styling and map layers.
04
Export
Download STL, 3MF or a high-res poster file for printing.

What is CreateYourMap.com Studio?
A map creation studio with three modes: 3D Map Generator for printable map models, TopoPrint 3D for hikes and GPX routes, and Map Poster Studio for flat wall art.
Which exports are supported?
3D map projects export STL and 3MF files. Poster projects export a high-resolution wall art file you can send to any print shop.
Can I import GPX files?
Yes. TopoPrint 3D supports GPX import and uses the file locally in your browser to create the route model and route caption values.
Can I override route distance, duration or elevation?
Yes. TopoPrint 3D calculates route values automatically, but you can overwrite distance, duration and elevation gain before export.
