Boulder’s Gate: a campus you can wander
A Rust-and-WebAssembly prototype presents a limited CU Boulder GIS slice as a campus-scale space to explore.
- For
- CU Boulder campus explorers and GIS-curious developers
- Worth noticing
- The notes distinguish dataset footprints from estimated heights and materials, procedural facades, and artistic tree placements.
Field notes
The page lists keyboard, touch, and controller controls, including walking, camera changes, a nearby car, map, reset, and fly/noclip modes. Its disclosure limits the model’s claims: source-dataset footprints are used, but heights and materials may be estimated; windows, roof tiles, and tree placements are artistic, and road coverage is incomplete. It credits OpenStreetMap contributors under ODbL 1.0 and City of Boulder Open Data under CC0, with separate inventory/source and third-party notices.
