Custom ReST API for accessing datasets in cesium ion

Cesium ion
1

I have been going through many online resources on cesium ion, cesium js etc.
I understand that one common workflow is to upload data into cesium ion and then access it using cesium js based application.

Is it possible to access data in cesium ion using custom rest API? For eg, I want to provide a rest endpoint to my clients to access lidar data. Endpoint would accept a bounding box from clients and would respond with the point clouds data within that bounding box.

Hi,

To make sure I understand the question correctly, what you are asking is: you would like to wrap the response from Cesium ion’s API inside your own API with some additional logic and serve a response for your use clients from your API?

Yes, exactly.

Hi,

This is okay to do. You can provide custom logic on the data you provide and modify it to your use case with your viewers
