3D Globe

Interactive 3D Globe is a fully customizable and super-light (less than 5kb) 3D globe component for Framer. It brings immersive earth visualization into your projects with smooth drag interactions, auto-rotation, and support for global markers. Whether you want to highlight world locations, showcase location markers, or build a rich interactive world map, this component provides a professional and flexible solution. Perfect for geographic map visualization, coordinate mapping, and dynamic planet earth experiences.

Instructions

1. Copy and paste the component into your project file.

2. Add custom markers by clicking the "Add" button in the Markers property control and entering latitude/longitude coordinates (e.g., 40.7128, -74.0060). This allows you to highlight key world locations with precision.

3. Customize the globe’s appearance, colors, and behavior using the property controls in the right-hand panel.

4. Adjust globe size, rotation settings, lighting effects, and interaction sensitivity to match your design needs.

How It Works

This interactive globe features 8 main control groups with comprehensive customization options:

• Globe Size: Controls the dimensions of the 3D earth (200–1200px).

• Position & Rotation: Manages longitude/latitude positioning, rotation speed, and auto-rotation toggle.

• Appearance: Adjusts dark mode intensity and diffuse lighting effects for stunning spherical visualization.

• Map Settings: Controls rendering quality (map samples) and brightness levels.

• Colors: Customizes base globe color and glow effect color.

• Markers: Array-based system for adding up to 20 location markers with custom coordinates, sizes, and colors.
