Abstract
A client device receives a first map tile, a second map tile, and map terrain data from a mapping system, the first and second map tiles together including map feature having a geometric base with a height value, the geometric base represented by a set of vertices split across the first and second map tiles. The client device identifies edges of the geometric base that intersect a tile border between the first and second map tiles. The client device determines a set of sample points based on the identified edges and determines a particular sample elevation value corresponding to a sample point in the set. The client device renders the map feature based on the particular sample elevation value and displays the rendering of the map feature.
