Description:
Digital twins increasingly require integrating, viewing, and interacting with ever larger amounts of disparate data. 3D Tiles enables users to visualize geospatial data on a massive scale while balancing performance across devices. 3D Tiles likewise provides a method to aggregate diverse data, such as 3D models, photogrammetry, LiDAR, BIM/CAD models, and more, into an interoperable ecosystem based on open-source standards. Cesium is a leading platform for 3D geospatial data suitable for developers, technical artists, data visualizers, and non-technical stakeholders. Cesium provides users with a number of free tools to convert 3D models into 3D Tiles and to host 3D Tiles for streaming. In this hands-on lab, we’ll leverage the Cesium platform to create global-scale digital twins by creating 3D Tiles, uploading them to a server, and interacting with the data in various runtimes such as the web and game engines.
