Based on a real 3D digital model of terrain, buildings and facilities, which are represented with their actual proportions and visual characteristics. The map is updated every year.

Publisher’s Description: Since 2001, DavGeo studio has begun to work at three-dimensional panoramic maps. The aim of the team is to create a panoramic map based on a real three-dimensional sample of the relief, the landscape and the touristic infrastructure (buildings and touristic objects).

The panoramic map of Sunny Beach resort is made on the base of a real three-dimensional model of the complex, where the landscape and the buildings are represented in their true proportions and visual characteristic. This digital three-dimensional model allows futher creation of different cartographic materials and applications with perfect quality.

In this edition, apart from the panoramic map of Sunny Beach resort, there is also a three-dimensional panorama of the whole Nessebar’s bay, as well as a 3D map of the architectural landmarks in antique Nessebar (UNESCO objects).
