add_cesium: Add Cesium

In mapdeck: Interactive Maps Using 'Mapbox GL JS' and 'Deck.gl'

Description

Renders 3D tiles data from Cesium ION assets. To use this layer you need a Cesium ION account https://cesium.com/docs/tutorials/getting-started/#your-first-app. This layer is experimental

Usage

add_cesium(map, data, point_size = 2, layer_id = NULL, ion_token = NULL)

Arguments

map	a mapdeck map object
data	data to be used in the layer. All coordinates are expected to be EPSG:4326 (WGS 84) coordinate system
point_size	size of point in pixels
layer_id	single value specifying an id for the layer. Use this value to distinguish between shape layers of the same type. Layers with the same id are likely to conflict and not plot correctly
ion_token	ion asset token

Examples

## Melbourne point cloud
ion_asset <- 43978
ion_token <- "ION_TOKEN"
tile_data <- paste0("https://assets.cesium.com/",ion_asset,"/tileset.json")

mapdeck(
  location = c(144.95, -37.82)
  , zoom = 14
  , pitch = 60
) %>%
 add_cesium(
   data = tile_data
   , ion_token = ion_token
 )
