<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:navy">I would recommend to change the location of buildings. In X3D, the Y direction is “up” by default, so it would be better to follow this rule; it will allow you to
take advantage of standard navigation modes in different X3D browsers and ensure interoperability with other X3D scenes and objects in future.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

your example, the height values are near zero, so the shape is near the XZ plane. The Transform adds 3193 to Y, shifting the ElevationGrid 3 kilometres up. On the other hand, the house doesn’t have a Transform, and its Y coordinates range from -9 to -3; therefore,
the house is 3 kilometres below the ground.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
