Include 3D Tiles in PlexMap 3D

For example, if you want to display a 3D mesh in 3D Tiles format from an image flight in PlexMap 3D, the model must first be copied to your PlexMap server.

Usually, you upload the 3D Tiles via SFTP into the incoming system folder of your PlexMap instance. If you have any questions, please contact our support.

After the 3D tiles file is completely uploaded to incoming, use the Load from Directory function in the switchboard to load the 3D tiles. In Load from Directory, specify the 3D tiles file in incoming as the pathname. You must now set the storage context to on-demand in Load from Directory.

Afterwards, the 3D tiles are simply stored in a layer of type "3D Tiles" with Store in Layer and can be displayed in PlexMap 3D.

External 3D tiles are 3D tiles files that you can obtain from an external source (e.g. an external geoportal) via the Internet.

If you want to import external 3D tiles, simply use the Import 3D Tiles function and enter the URL to the desired tileset.json.

Afterwards the external 3D tiles are simply stored with Store in Layer in a layer of the type "External 3D Tiles" and can be displayed in PlexMap 3D.
