How to get part of city as a level?

Cesium for Unreal
1

Hello, everyone,

Just asking for help. I´m working on my diploma thesis and I need help. There is a thing that I need to create small part of city in Japan (Shibuya crossing in Tokyo). Is there any option how to get city structure of this part with the buildings and roads as a part of level? I prefer box model of building.

Cheers.

Hi @Filip_Sedlacek, welcome to the community!

I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you mean. :slightly_frowning_face: You could probably use Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles to get a representation of Japan at the level of detail you want. But I’m not sure what you mean as “part of level”?

I mean that I found some location which is interesting for game dev project (as a part of diploma). Is it posible to cut it off and use as a terrain with basic texture?

Hi @Filip_Sedlacek,

This sounds like a use case for Cesium ion Clips. Using Cesium ion, you can select a region of 3D Tiles to download, either as a smaller tileset or as a single glTF model. You could bring the data as a glTF into 3D editing tools and modify the geometry / textures as you see fit.

However, the ability to make Clips depends on the data that you are using. This is possible if you’re using data that we provide on Cesium ion, such as Cesium World Terrain. But for legal reasons, it is not possible to make Clips with Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles or Bing Maps Aerial Imagery.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks!
