--- Comment #2 from Tobias Knerr <bugs.kde at tobias-knerr.de> ---
I would love to see 3D models in Marble and tend to agree with digi_c's
conclusion that pulling 3D data from a service is probably the better solution.

However, as the maintainer of OSM2World (http://osm2world.org), I'd like to
pitch my project as an alternative to osm-3d.org. Unlike the backend of the
osm-3d.org service, OSM2World is open source software. It also supports a
larger proportion of the attributes present in OpenStreetMap data.

While unfortunately no existing 3D vector service delivers models calculated by
an OSM2World backend yet - so there is no short-term "plug and play" solution
that Marble could integrate -, such a service could be developed in cooperation
with the Marble community according to Marble's needs. If someone is willing to
take up the Marble side of this, I would be happy to work on necessary
improvements to OSM2World myself.
