Hi @maxtorgr,

Thank you for reaching out to the community! Are you looking to query the OSM buildings dataset? If so, I recommend that you check out the following styling guide:

Hi @maxtorgr ,

You can easily get the all features properties just using below code

var handlerA = new Cesium.ScreenSpaceEventHandler(viewer.scene.canvas);

handlerA.setInputAction(function(click) {

var pickedObject = scene.pick(click.position);

if (Cesium.defined(pickedObject)) {

 let totalFeatures = pickedObject.getPropertyNames();

console.log(pickedObject.getProperty(“id”)); // you can get any feature property id, name, height etc.

}

Hi @maxtorgr

The data is derived / calculated from the source CityGML data for the New York buildings and stored in the 3D Tileset’s metadata (not exactly a database). The metadata in 3D Tileset is associated with the geometry of the buildings.

I think it would be be tremendously helpful to know a little bit more about your use case to help give you a more specific answer to help you find a solution.
