Bring movement and perspective to your projects with Cadence Camera Overlay, where maps come to life through animated fly-throughs that follow your chosen path.
Visualise how a location looks and feels by animating the camera along a line you draw or upload. Adjust altitude, speed, and viewpoint to create smooth, cinematic map journeys.
From static to cinematic in seconds
Cadence makes it easy to transform static maps into immersive experiences. Simply upload or draw a line path, and the Camera Overlay turns it into an animated tour of your map.
Whether you’re presenting urban growth, showcasing a development site, or illustrating transport routes, Camera Overlay helps you communicate spatial information with clarity and impact.

“As consultants, we’re often juggling multiple locations at once. With Cadence Templates, we just copy the same template to a new area and we’re up and running instantly. It’s a game-changer for the efficiency of mobilising a planning project.”
James, Senior Planning Consultant
