A 2.4 km square of real ridge and valley farmland, in 3D.

Sample map, real public data · Vernon County, WI · not a listing · height ×1.6For planning only. Not a survey or engineering report.

01The 3D map

Let people walk the place before they come.

This is a sample: real farmland in Wisconsin, built from public data. Scroll, and it shows what a 3D map tells your customers.

1 of 6

The whole place, in 3D

Hills, fields, woods and water, from real aerial photos and elevation. Anyone can turn it with a finger, on their phone, from anywhere.

2 of 6

Where it's flat, where it's steep

Good for a house site, a row of tents, a ceremony lawn or a new street. The faint lines are 20 ft contours.

  • Under 8%
  • 8 to 15%
  • Over 15%

3 of 6

Where the water goes

The blue lines show where rain runs and gathers. On a real property we can add the FEMA flood zone, with its date and a link to the source.

4 of 6

Sun across the day

Keep scrolling and the sun crosses the sky, with shadows from the real hills. Golden hour on the lawn, shade at the campsite, which lot gets winter sun.

The best spots, marked

Building sites, campsites, the photo spot, the trailhead. You tell us what to mark, and the map can also point out gentle, high, dry ground worth a closer look.

6 of 6

Answers right next to the map

Each map ends with the questions your customers always ask, in plain words.

  • LandFlood zone, building sites, road access
  • VenuesCeremony spot, parking, golden hour
  • CampgroundsSites, shade, trails, the walk to the lake
  • FarmsThe rows, the tour route, where to picnic

Fewer "where exactly is it?" calls. More people who show up ready.

06Where the map data comes from

Public data, shown with its source and date.

Where each map layer comes from
LayerSource
Ground shape, slope, contoursU.S. Geological Survey elevation data, the most detailed available for the area
Aerial photosUSGS The National Map and USDA aerial photos
Flood zoneFEMA flood maps, with the map's effective date
SoilsUSDA soil survey
Streams and waterUSGS stream maps, plus runoff worked out from the elevation
Property linesCounty parcel records, checked against your own map
SunNOAA sun-position math, with shadows from the terrain

How we build a map

  1. Pull each layer straight from its public source.
  2. Check every layer against that source, and the property lines against your own map.
  3. Label each layer on screen with its source and date.
  4. Say so when data is thin. If the detail isn't there for your area, we tell you before we build.

07FAQ

Good questions.

Do I need a 3D map?

Not always. If people care where things are on your property (lots, sites, the view, the lay of the land), a map helps them decide. If not, a website alone may be all you need. Not sure? Tell us about your place and we'll say which we'd pick.

Can you add a map to the website I already have?

Yes: every Business Map comes with embed code. The map goes into your site with one line of code, the same way you'd add a video. You keep your site; we host the map.

What if it isn't right?

If it isn't right, we fix it; if we can't, full refund. If we miss the delivery date shown before you paid, you're refunded automatically. Websites start as a free private draft: like it, pay the deposit inside the draft to go live; don't, and you owe nothing.

What's the poster?

A printable file of your land in 3D, with its name, coordinates and one standout fact: letter size and 18x24, as PDFs. You print it wherever you like. You pick what it shows: water, sun, terrain, or let us choose. We don't ship prints.

Is it a good gift?

Yes. Tick "This is a gift" at checkout and you get a free printable gift card with a QR code that opens the map. Order by Tuesday, December 15 for delivery by Tuesday, Dec 22.

What do you need from me?

For a land or property map, just the parcel number (or the general area) and an email. For a website: the address, your current site or booking link if you have one, and your logo and photos (or we use public imagery).

What's the monthly fee for?

Hosting and keeping your website or embedded map online and working. Business Maps are $99/yr after the first year. There's no fee of any kind after purchase on a personal map.

Does it work on phones?

Yes. Most people will see it on a phone, so we build for the phone first and test every page at phone size before you see it.

Is the map a survey?

No. It's built from public data for planning, and every map says so on screen. Lines, acres and flood status can be off. A licensed surveyor and the county have the final word.

Where can you do this?

Anywhere in the US with public elevation data, which is almost everywhere. Parcel lines are found automatically in NC, FL, IN, UT and WI (48 hours); elsewhere we draw an approximate boundary, clearly labelled, in 5 business days. You see which before you pay. If we can't find your place at all, there's nothing to pay.

08About

A small studio. On purpose.

Meridian Studio is a small team. We make websites and interactive 3D maps for places, using public data and modern web 3D. You deal directly with the people who build your project, and every map layer is checked by hand against its source before you see it.

Why "Meridian"? A meridian is a north–south line on the map, the kind surveyors measure from. It felt right for a studio about places.

09Contact

Tell us about your place.

A few lines is plenty. We'll reply with an idea. For a website, the quickest way is the free draft request.
