3D Topography of Your GPS Track
As a hiker and (ski)mountaineer I've always been a bit disappointed of how most apps fail to properly depict the topography while analyzing GPS tracks. (I know that Strava offers some kind of 3D view by now, but I still wanted to build my own thing) That's why I started working on https://cubetrek.com It's still very experimental, but you can give it test-drive now. Any feedback appreciated. It essentially renders your GPS Track as a 3D model within the topography. As an example, here's the Bishorn, a 4000 m peak in Switzerland: https://cubetrek.com/view/5807…
3D Topography of Your GPS Track launched on August 5, 2022 with 8 votes, #1,007 of 3,307 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.
What it does
CubeTrek is a Web App to visualize and manage GPS Tracks. Realistically depict the topography in 3D, get in-depth statistics about your adventures, share your activities with your friends. It's intended for Outdoor activities in mountainous and hilly Terrain, such as Skiing, Mountaineering, Mountainbiking and Trailrunning. If you encounter any problems, errors and bugs, shoot me an email . Topography is what makes Skiing, Hiking, Trail running and Mountain biking so exciting. You conquer those vertical distances with a lot of sweat and effort, but your tracking software only shows a boring 2D map. That's where CubeTrek comes in. Visualize your adventures with TrekMapper , revealing your…from cubetrek.com

3D Terrain simulation for hiking, skiing etc.2025 · github.com · ▲150I'm working on a GPS track visualizer for quite some time. It shines in hilly and mountaineous terrain (where a 3D view makes more sense), but it also offers quite a lot of Strava-like features (statistics etc.). You can upload your GPX and FIT files manually, or sync directly with Garmin, Coros and Polar. See https://cubetrek.com for the live app and check out some examples there. It's free and opens source. Also, anyone who likes to work with 3D visualizations (especially Babylon.js), let me know if you like to help polish this thing further.

I made a web app to generate 3D models of real places on earth from land cover and elevation data. Click anywhere on the map to get a polygon, and then click "generate". It should work at most scales, but if your watershed or region selection is too large, the result can be less exciting because it's so flat. As a warning, the 3D models can sometimes be too much for my phone. It's nicer on desktop. I'm still working better on mobile support. The land cover data I'm using gives a cool effect, but at some point I'd like to add in global imagery and clouds. The backend is a Python thread…
I'm building a Strava alternative without all the social media crap2023 · cubetrek.com · ▲16I'm working on https://cubetrek.com, a web app to manage, visualize and compare your running, hiking, mountainbiking, skiing... activities. Some features include: a github-style calendar heatmap, 3D visualization of tracks (especially useful for hill climbs and mountaineous terrain in general), a world map displaying all your activities at once. Excluded features: although you can share yoir tracks to the world, should you choose so, there are no friends, no likes, no comments, i.e. none of that social networking stuff. And no ads. Any feedback is appreciated, let me know what you…

Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
