Show HN: 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.

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://ift.tt/UfPnsHa The front end is based on Babylon.js, D3.js, the back end is Spring Boot and Postgresql with PostGIS.
