Intelligently Placing Labels

Abstract: some embodiments provide a mapping application that displays a rotation of a 3d map and corresponding rotation of a set of map labels overlaying the 3d map in response to receiving input to rotate the 3d map. when a particular map label in the set of map labels rotates towards an upside down orientation, the mapping application also replaces the particular map label with a version of the particular map label arranged in a right side up orientation to prevent the particular map label from being displayed in the upside down orientation in the 3d map.
