Camera restrictions

The following example creates a 3D map positioned in Auckland, New Zealand. The map is restricted to New Zealand. The user can pan and tilt around the country, but can't pan or zoom beyond the restraints set on the map.

Read the documentation.

JavaScript

async function init() {
    await google.maps.importLibrary('maps3d');

    const map3DElement = document.querySelector('gmp-map-3d');

    // Restrict the position of the camera to the specified bounds.
    map3DElement.bounds = {
        south: -48.3,
        west: 163.56,
        north: -32.86,
        east: -180,
    };
}

Clone Sample

Git and Node.js are required to run this sample locally. Follow these instructions to install Node.js and NPM. You will also need a Google Maps API key.

The following commands clone the repository, install dependencies, and copy the environment file. 

  git clone https://github.com/googlemaps-samples/js-api-samples.git
  cd js-api-samples
  npm i
  cp .env.template .env

Once you copy the environment file, make sure to open the .env file and replace <Insert your own development API key here> with your actual API key before starting the sample. 

  cd samples/3d-camera-boundary
  npm start
