What does the building really look like — and what's around it?
Listing photos are taken from the best angle. The Lands Department's survey isn't: a textured 3D model of the building, on the real terrain, among the blocks that actually surround it. The map opens it for any building it covers, and counts floors up the facade as you move.
What the 3D view gives you
Photo-real models
The Lands Department's textured survey models — the building as it stands, not a render.

Every footprint with its real height, so the towers around your building are where they are.

Buildings stand on the government's ground model — hillside blocks sit where they really sit.

Move up the wall and the map reads Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 — the base for the sunlight tool.

What the 3D view won't tell you
Inside the flat
The survey is the outside of the building. Layouts come from sales brochures.
Buildings finished last month
New blocks appear when the Lands Department updates its survey.
Exact floor-to-floor heights
Floors are estimated from the facade; the approved plans have the real figures.
