About STL

Map of Berlin in STL: 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:

What the file carries

The STL 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 STL 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 STL file for Berlin is about 24.5 MB; the exact size depends on the chosen layers and area.

STL 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); no colour — STL stores triangles only; OSM tags do not go into the model — features: 288 913.

Build recipe: binary STL: buildings extruded by height or building:levels × 3 m, a base plate under the model; 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 STL model the building height comes from the height tag, or else from building:levels at 3 m per level.

How to use STL for Berlin

  1. PrusaSlicer or Cura (free) — open the file, fit it to the bed by scaling and slice; supports are usually not needed, the model already stands on a plate.
  2. Blender or MeshLab — look at the model, cut off what you don't need, merge it with other objects before printing.
  3. Mesh checking — run the model through the check in your slicer or in Meshmixer: OSM data contains buildings overlapping each other, which produces self-intersections.

FAQ: STL 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.

Can I 3D print this?

Yes, the STL file is ready for import into any slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer) and 3D printing.

How big is the model?

200 mm along the longest side, which fits the bed of virtually any home printer. The file holds real millimetres, so no manual scaling is needed. The base plate is 2 mm.

Where do building heights come from?

From OSM tags: height, building:levels, or 9m default (3 floors).
