Texturing specific areas

Cesium for Unity
1

Hey, I have a question and that is the possibility to texture some areas. Unfortunately the road quality is not good enough. Therefore I ask if it is possible to texture the terrain directly or if you have to create your own mesh. From the top view it is great.

Hi @Jhen237,

There’s a lot of possibilities here. I’ll list them all out so you can pick the solution that is best for you!

  1. You can apply custom materials to a Cesium3DTileset using its Material property. This will allow you to apply textures to the terrain. However, it will apply this material to the entire tileset, so you will have to be careful about how you apply the textures.
  2. You can find higher resolution satellite imagery and drape it over the terrain. We support several raster overlay formats: TMS, WMS, and WMTS. You can also upload imagery to Cesium ion and stream it as a CesiumIonRasterOverlay.
  3. If you have higher resolution terrain for a certain area, you can use CesiumCartographicPolygon to inset that high-res terrain in the larger dataset. You can follow this tutorial here for more info.

Let us know if you have any follow-up questions!
