Class: CesiumImagery

CesiumImagery()

A CesiumImagery Model contains the information required for Cesium to request and draw high-resolution image tiles using several standards (Cesium "imagery providers"), including Cesium Ion and Bing Maps. Imagery layers have brightness, contrast, gamma, hue, and saturation properties that can be dynamically changed.

Type Definitions

cesiumOptions

Options that are supported for creating imagery tiles. Any properties provided here are passed to the Cesium constructor function, so other properties that are documented in Cesium are also supported. See https://cesium.com/learn/cesiumjs/ref-doc/BingMapsImageryProvider.html#.ConstructorOptions and https://cesium.com/learn/cesiumjs/ref-doc/IonImageryProvider.html#.ConstructorOptions.
Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Description
ionAssetId string | number If this imagery is hosted by Cesium Ion, then Ion asset ID.
key string | number A key or token required to access the tiles. For example, if this is a BingMapsImageryProvider, then the Bing maps key. If one is required and not set, the model will look in the AppModel for a key, for example, AppModel#bingMapsKey
tilingScheme 'GeographicTilingScheme' | 'WebMercatorTilingScheme' The tiling scheme to use when constructing an imagery provider. If not set, Cesium uses WebMercatorTilingScheme by default.
rectangle Array.<Number> The rectangle covered by the layer. The list of west, south, east, north bounding degree coordinates, respectively. This will be passed to Cesium.Rectangle.fromDegrees to define the bounding box of the imagery layer. If left undefined, the layer will cover the entire globe.
