Purdue University’s Envision Center has integrated Cesium for Unity into its CollabXR application to support collaborative XR exploration of geospatial data.
Visualizations stream terrain and Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles to a WGS84 globe at runtime, together with domain-specific datasets, such as satellite orbits and live ADS‑B aviation feeds. A networked architecture handles multi-user synchronization. CollabXR is used across the university by multiple disciplines for both research and teaching.
They plan to release their platform as open source in the future. Read more about what they’re building.
