Besides the fact that OP did not even ask that, many games do that by having alternative icons for higher/lower entities, generally a triangle pointing up or down signifying whether the entity is higher or lower than you are.

there are a ton of games that just use a overhead camera as a mini-map
why don't we just do that?
you could use a playertype

Didn't RTB 1.x or some other mod have a radar/minimap thing?
