Map to 3MF
Convert a map to a printable 3MF model
Mini Skyline converts selected map areas into printable 3MF models for 3D printing, with city terrain, buildings, roads, water, and parks generated from real map data.
- Select a real-world map footprint and generate a printable relief model.
- Export core 3MF files for slicer-ready workflows.
- Preview the generated 3D model before downloading the 3MF.
A direct map-to-3MF workflow
Instead of tracing a place manually, choose the map area and let Mini Skyline build the printable terrain and city geometry.
Need an STL?
Mini Skyline writes 3MF, which every current slicer opens the same way it opens an STL. If another tool needs an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it from there.
More than a heightmap
City models can include raised buildings and semantic map features, so the result reads like a recognizable place instead of only terrain.

Common questions
Can I download an STL instead?
Not directly. Mini Skyline exports 3MF only, because 3MF keeps the named parts, material colors, attribution, and source provenance that an STL file cannot carry. Every current slicer imports a 3MF the same way it imports an STL. If another tool needs an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it as STL there; the part names, colors, and license bundle do not survive that conversion.
Can I make a printable model from a real city map?
Yes. Select the city area, preview the generated mesh, then export a printable 3MF model.
Can I print the 3MF on a normal 3D printer?
Yes. The 3MF export is intended for common slicers and printers; model size, terrain relief, and building height settings can be tuned before export.
Does 3MF include colors?
Yes. Mini Skyline 3MF exports can include slicer-friendly color and material metadata where supported.
