Classic Map Generator
Search a city, frame the exact streets you want, and the Classic Map Generator splits them into a stack of cut-ready boards — water at the base, land above it, major roads cut clean through, minor roads engraved as fine grooves, all closed by a wooden frame. Preview the whole stack in 3D, then export layered cut files or send them straight to xTool Studio.
How to Make a Layered Map with Atomm
From a place name to a stack of cut-ready boards, in three passes.
Roads That Cut Through, Not Just Print On
Most map tools hand you one flat image with the streets drawn on top — fine for a poster, but there is nothing to build. This one separates the map into physical boards: water on a base board, a land board above it, motorways and trunk roads cut clean through the plate above that, and the smaller streets engraved as fine grooves in the land. What comes off the machine has real depth and real shadow lines, because the depth was in the file, not in the render.
You Decide Which Streets Make the Cut
Open any layer and tick exactly which road classes it carries — motorway, trunk, primary, secondary, tertiary, minor, residential, unclassified, living street, service, pedestrian, path — then set its thickness, its material colour, its default road width, and whether it scores, cuts, or engraves. Add more road layers for a deeper stack. A dense downtown and a quiet coastal town each get the density that actually looks right, instead of one fixed style applied to both.
Fabrication Limits Applied Before You Cut
Real street data is full of hairline slivers and orphan islands that look fine on screen and drop out of the board on the machine. Set a minimum feature size and a minimum fragment area, and the generator removes whatever is too thin or too small to hold together before it ever reaches the file — and tells you exactly how many fragments it dropped. Fewer ruined boards, fewer reruns, less expensive sheet stock in the bin.
See the Whole Stack Before You Spend a Sheet
Switch to 3D Stack and the relief appears in the wood or acrylic you picked, lit and shadowed the way the finished piece will be; drag Explode to pull the boards apart and check how they sit together. Switch to 2D Layers and you get the exact cut sheets instead — one per board, cut paths in red, engrave paths in blue. When it looks right, download the files or send the whole job to xTool Studio with Open in Studio.
Places Worth Building in Layers
Any place with a street pattern someone would recognise from across the room.
