Powerful Features for Map Animations

Everything you need to create high-quality map animations in minutes

Scenes

Run multiple animations at the same time for cinematic, professional results

Concurrent Execution

Group steps into scenes to run them simultaneously. Fly to a location while filling it with a flag and adding a label — all at once, not one after another.

Shorter Animations

Overlapping camera movement with visual effects cuts your animation time in half. A 30-second sequential animation becomes a 15-second cinematic piece.

Flexible Timing

Add delays between steps in a scene to stagger their start times. Start the camera movement, then reveal the border trace 1.5 seconds later for a natural "arrive and reveal" effect.

Widescreen

Perfect for YouTube, presentations, and desktop viewing

Starting Point & Location Features

Precise control over camera positioning and location handling

Custom Starting Point

Set a custom starting position for your animation. Perfect for establishing shots or when you want precise control over the initial camera state.

  • Coordinates: Set exact latitude/longitude for camera center
  • Zoom Level: Control initial zoom (1-18)
  • Bearing: Set initial map rotation angle
  • Tilt: Set camera tilt angle

Bounding Box, Coordinates & Camera Pose

When a location is ambiguous, missing, or needs exact framing, use coordinates and bounding boxes to place the camera exactly where you want it.

  • Bounding Box: Define area using [west, south, east, north] coordinates
  • Point Coordinates: Use [longitude, latitude] for precise positioning
  • Camera Pose: Save precise framing (center/zoom/bearing/tilt) for consistent shots across views
  • Fallback Support: DB-first lookup with AI coordinate fallback when needed
