Hello, everybody:

I’m working at a project based on Cesium. Now, I have many points of an area, which have x,y coordinate and value about representing pm 2.5 density.

I want to visualize these points in Cesium with heatmap as below, and like elevation, the value of one area is bigger, it’s also higher.

But I don’t know how to do it. Could you help me and give me some clues about this? Looking forward to you reply, thank you very much!

Chad

Hello,  
you could check this [repository](https://github.com/dragon112/CesiumHeatmap). I don’t know if it’s maintained.
