Cesium Releases Comprehensive 3D Moon Terrain Dataset via Cesium ion
Aug 6, 2024, 01:30 PM
Cesium has announced the release of Cesium Moon Terrain, the first comprehensive, precise, and readily-available 3D dataset of the moon. This new dataset is available through Cesium ion and Cesium ion Self-Hosted platforms. The Cesium Moon Terrain is composed of precise terrain and imagery from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter program and other sources, provided as 3D Tiles, an open geospatial community standard created by Cesium. This 3D model will aid astronauts in preparing for future lunar missions, according to Technical_ly.
