2. 3D Landscape
Use the Java ME™ or the Android SDK to develop
applications with realistic 3D maps
Easy to use API’s for displaying and controlling high quality
3D rendered maps
Use the RESTful API for
bird-view images

3. Why 3D Landscape?
Devices like mobiles are used everywhere and are ideal
for maps applications
Realistic 3D maps for a unique feeling
Simple API’s that are developed specifically for mobiles
3D Landscape from Ericsson Labs is a map
solution tailored for mobile application demands

4. Main Features of 3D Landscape
Realistic 3D images (3D city models)
Advanced rendering engine for streamed 3D map
data (Java ME and Android)
Simple UI controls (touch in android)
A RESTful API for bird-view images
Control for a compass and POI pins
(signs) for Android.
Free access to map data up to a limit

5. 3D Landscape SDK’s
Render the 3D map view and handle communication towards
the map server.
The view is defined based on the target position and the
position of the camera.

8. 3D Landscape JavaME Client API
Java ME library that is easily included in many mobile applications
Supported phones are most SonyEricsson models with Java
platform at least JP-7 and support of Mascot Capsule V3 rendering
engine
The library provides the functionality of retrieving, displaying and
interacting with maps from your application
// Create a 3D Landscape object
private Landscape3D landscape3d;
landscape3d = new Landscape3D("MY DEVELOPER KEY", 59.312239f, 18.088393f, 3, 1);
try {
Graphics g = getGraphics();
while(true) {
// Initiate Graphics
...
int tri = landscape3d.draw3D(getHeight(),getWidth(),g);
// Handle key presses and camera movement
...
}
...

9. 3D Landscape Android Client API
Library that is easily included in your Android mobile application
Supports Android phones with version 1.5 and later
public class Landscape3DExample extends Activity {
// Define global vars
private Landscape3D l3d = null;
private View3D myView = null;
...
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
/*
* Create the Landscape3D object
*/
l3d = new Landscape3D(KEY, 59.313239f, 18.088393f, this);
myView = new View3D(this, l3d);
...
// Set layout design with Message handling
...
}
}
