About GLB
Map of Berlin in GLB: 288 913 buildings — in the WGS 84 coordinate system, units are meters.
Which layers are in the file
This file for the selected area contains:
- Buildings
What the file carries
The GLB file for Berlin: features come as a single stream, without named layers, OpenStreetMap tags are not kept — geometry and styling remain, object heights are carried.
What this file will not contain
In GLB for Berlin the following will not travel: 11 732 km of roads, 699 water features, 197 206 points of interest — the format prints solid volumes extruded from building outlines, and other layers are not part of the model.
File size
The expected size of the GLB file for Berlin is about 17.7 MB; the exact size depends on the chosen layers and area.
GLB file passport
Estimated from the place's OSM data; exact figures are in the file after the build.
- Triangles in the model (estimated): ≈ 3 466 968
- Buildings without height or building:levels: 162 932 of 288 913
- Model size at 1:5 000: 9 118 × 7 459 mm
Losses: 162 932 buildings without height or building:levels — height by building type (9 m by default); OSM tags do not go into the model — features: 288 913.
Build recipe: glTF 2.0 (.glb — a single binary file, .gltf — JSON with embedded buffers): buildings extruded by height or building:levels × 3 m, material by building type; frame 46 × 37 km.
How it is built in the file
The tallest building of Berlin in OSM data is Berliner Fernsehturm (OSM id 556435241): 368.0 m. Its footprint is 719 m². In the GLB model the building height comes from the height tag, or else from building:levels at 3 m per level.

How to use GLB for Berlin
- Windows 10 and 11 — open it with a double click in the built-in "3D Viewer": you can spin the model around without installing anything.
- Blender (free) — File → Import → glTF 2.0; the scene arrives with materials, and from there it is lighting, camera and rendering.
- three.js and Babylon.js — GLTFLoader loads the .glb directly; the file is self-contained, there are no separate assets to place alongside.

FAQ: GLB for Berlin
Which layers are included in the 3D model?
Only building geometry. Roads, landuse, water, and boundaries are not included in the 3D scene.
Is terrain relief included?
Yes, where elevation data (DEM) covers the area: buildings sit on the terrain and the top of the base follows the slope. Without DEM the model stands at z = 0. A bare relief surface is the separate Terrain Mesh format.
What's the difference between GLB and glTF?
GLB is everything in one binary file. glTF is JSON + separate resources. GLB is more compact and loads faster.
Can I open GLB in Windows?
Yes, Windows 10/11 has a built-in 3D Viewer that supports GLB.
At what scale does the model arrive?
In meters, with the origin at the center of the selected area. The buildings stand on a plane, so the model can be measured right away and compared with real dimensions.
