Features:
Map Navigation:
- Users can zoom in, zoom out, rotate, and pan the map.
- The map should provide an immersive 3D navigation experience.
3D Model Overlay:
- Overlay 7 GLB format 3D models on specific coordinates.
- Models should transform based on user interaction with the map, similar to the experience in Pokemon Go.
Model Interaction:
- Users can click on the 3D models to view additional information.
- Display a text description in a sidebar when a model is clicked.
Search Functionality:
- Users can search for specific locations on the map.
Functional Specification:
User Interaction:
- Users navigate the map using standard controls (zoom, pan, rotate).
- When a user clicks on a 3D model, a sidebar appears with a text description of the model.
Pages and Components:
- Main Page:
- Displays the 3D map with navigation controls.
- Overlays 3D models at specific coordinates.
- Sidebar for displaying model information.
- Search Component:
- Allows users to search for specific locations on the map.
Technical Specification:
Application Type and Technologies:
- Web application using React for the frontend.
- Google Maps Platform API for map functionality and 3D map rendering.
- Backend using Node.js with Express framework.
- MongoDB for any necessary data storage (optional based on further requirements).
Architecture:
- Frontend:
- React for building the UI components.
- Google Maps API for map rendering and navigation.
- Integration with the Google Maps API to overlay 3D models and handle user interactions.
- Sidebar component for displaying model information.
- Backend:
- Node.js with Express for handling any server-side logic.

Detailed Component Description:
- Map Component:
- Integrates with Google Maps API.
- Handles map navigation (zoom, pan, rotate).
- Overlays 3D models at specified coordinates.
- Updates model positions and transformations based on user interactions.
- Model Component:
- Renders 3D GLB models on the map.
- Listens for click events to trigger the display of additional information.
- Sidebar Component:
- Displays text descriptions of models when clicked.
- Positioned on the side of the map.
- Search Component:
- Provides a search bar for users to find specific locations.
- Integrates with Google Maps API for location search functionality.
Integration Specification:
Google Maps API:
- Utilize the Google Maps JavaScript API for rendering the 3D map and handling navigation.
- Use the Google Maps API to overlay 3D GLB models on specific coordinates.
- Implement search functionality using the Google Maps Places API.
3D Models:
- Models will be provided in GLB format.
- Coordinates for each model will be specified and stored in the application.
