    This is amazing. I wish I knew about this earlier, I had been looking into how to extract 3D data from Google Maps and saw some attempts by others that involved taking tons of screenshots and running them through photogrammetry, but the results were poor. This is really something else.

    Took a couple tries to get the timing down but OMG this worked so well! I was struggling with trying to make a 3d model of denver and vegas and the data sets for lidar either didnt load, were huge files, were off limits to me because of covid, or they had crazy spiky artifacts i had to manually fix. Plus i was limited to the areas that were already scanned. BUT THIS...THIS IS JUST AMAZING! IN 30 minutes after finding your video, i had a full 3d model of the Vegas strip (current 2020 as well) open in blender ready to be made printable on my 3d printer... you are a god.

    Wow thank you very much for this solution. After days of trying this approach I figured out some tips that might be helpful for you if you struggle (Some of those adviced are already given by the author): 1) Use different Chrome/Chromium versions. Make sure to actually use the old ones because Chrome tends to update automatically. 2) Use RenderDoc 1.2 portable version. In more recent versions I couldn´t catch the materials/geometry of the scene and I had problems importing everything to Blender 3) Keep injecting the chrome gpu processes: While running RenderDoc and opening chrome I had to constantly inject a new process given by the chrome window. Keep injecting the new given process until google has loaded completly. 4) When installing the blender addon install the release zip. Thanks!

    Thank you for an amazing tutorial. I am struggling with the scale of the model. It seems like every capture is a different scale and has to be visually scaled to an aerial image. Even if i use unitless scale throughout the process there's no logic that gets it to a true 1:1 scale. When i heard your french accent, i thought metric, but that seems to just complicate the scaling issue. Any idea of what unit or scale RenderDoc captures from Google maps or is that completely arbitrary depending on your zoom factor? For testing purposes off course!

    @Lollo yeah go to your task manager and close every chrome tab that pops up, for some reason there is like 5-6 that run in the background

    Whenever I try to run the Chrome shortcut, it gives me the PID popup, but it also loads the Chrome tab, not the white screen. I am pretty sure this is what is causing it as I don't ever see just the blank white screen and I dont get the "debug" window. Any help?

I did those below 1. Enable hardware acceleration. Settings --> Advanced --> Enable hardware acceleration. 2. Enable two things at chrome://flags. One of them is "WebGL Draft Extensions" (halfway down) the other is "Override software rendering list" (at the top). 3. Close Chrome and make sure it is not running in the background. Re-open. Then, It didn't work still. Actually, I am from Korea. So, I changed website link "google.co.kr/maps/" to "www.google.com/maps/" I can't still see the 3D mode on google map.

    Just followed the video step by step, and get the right version of blender, chrome, plugin and renderdoc. Try with “le Mont-Saint-Michel” in France it’s an island isolated and well détails and the all 3D is about 200blocks or mesh that is the limit of the plugin with basics settings. Look after the number of errors when you shot from chrome sometime you need to try many times to reduce the load ing error. Actually the tricky part is not the import in blender it’s more the screenshot F12 where I’m still working on the best way to shot more detailed and bigger area, at the moment using the debugger where u can simulate a device with max 9999x9999pixels, that makes maps load the high definition tiles on the all area, but then u need to import more than 200 blocks in blender and that is a question for Elie because it’s possible to change it but I haven’t found it until now, there is an operators.py file in zip where u can define the number of blocks but haven’t get to reload the plugin with new settings... I just started two days ago and still investing the possibilities around it ;) have a nice day, would be nice to hear from Elie about the limit of blocks, but also about the possibility to use a portable version of chrome as mention in a git.hub discussion ;)

Is there a more brute force way to get this done? Like the link you shared with more information in your blog? I reallly want this to work but ithe capture frames pops up for 2 500 milliseconds and goes away immediately, nothing happens even if I race to click it. I have to close out at least 5 different GPU /PID (whatever it is called) diaglog boxes for chrome. Any ideas?

    OK here was my process whcih worked eventually: Needed Blender 2.8 ( the beta) not 2.79 . (sorry i didnt listen!) Needed RenderDoc 1.2 portable. (older version) . Had disable AV cos of abp.exe it didnt like. Also had to click on the Vulkan is missing, then it adds it I made a mistake of putting the flags inside the quotes should be outside "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-gpu-sandbox --gpu-startup-dialog --use-angle=gl --disable-extensions --disable-plugins In fact the --disable-gpu-sandbox was needed - even though chrome says it was an unrecognised flag - otherwise PrntScr didnt work

    Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I had some problems using the tool, but ultimately it worked: - I've downloaded an older version of RenderDoc (Version 1.7) since the new version didn't include "Inject into process" - I adjusted the Chrome-shortcut using the mentioned text - for Chrome it was important to close all chrome-processes using the task manager before opening it again. - then started chrome and got the number of the GPU process which then was entered in RenderDoc - On one PC I couldn't use the 3d-View of GoogleMaps, but on a second PC it worked. (this might have something to do with my graphics card)
