# How to create a 3D map
Show 3D features on a map

Amazon Location Service lets you add three-dimensional features to maps, such as `Terrain3D` to display elevation data as a three-dimensional surface, or `Buildings3D` to display urban structures with height and volume. 

## Create a map with three-dimensional terrain details


This example shows how to create a map with `Terrain3D` parameter.
