Use STK data file in Cesium

CesiumJS

Hi,

I just found an AGI paper about how to import matlab 3d plot data to STK. I am wondering whether I can convert such data to Cesium data format? I want to create similar 3d plot using matlab and show that 3d plot on Cesium. Here is the link to the paper:

Thanks!

Hi there,

STK and Cesium are very different applications, so the work you referenced does not apply to Cesium. While Cesium can visualize arbitrary geometry, we don’t have direct support for getting the geometry from an arbitrary antenna pattern file. You can write a custom geometry that reads from an STK pattern file (and we’d love it if you shared your results if you do!).

Here’s a guide for creating custom geometry: https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/wiki/Geometry-and-Appearances

Hope that helps!
