2025年、国連宇宙部（UNOOSA）と英連邦事務局が共同で推進する「Commonwealth Digital Twin Project」において、Cesiumが重要な役割を果たしました。本プロジェクトは、気候変動の影響を受けやすい英連邦諸国を対象に、AIと衛星データによる3D都市モデルと洪水・高潮シミュレーションを構築し、住民の防災力を高める国際的な試みです。

Joey Sipos, founder of 5D Realities, develops highly immersive flight experiences for virtual reality. His flagship title Glider Sim, which is available on Steam and Meta Quest, leverages Cesium for Unity and Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles to bring the real world to life for users preparing for airborne adventures.

About 25% of the global seafloor has been mapped in high resolution, according to NOAA, leaving a lot of work to be done. It’s not always practical or safe for humans to be involved, and that’s where Terradepth comes in: its autonomous underwater vehicles collect vast amounts of 3D seabed data hosted on Cesium ion Self-Hosted and streamed to its CesiumJS-powered app, Absolute Ocean. 

Google Maps 2D Tiles are now available through your Cesium ion account. With the addition of Google Maps 2D Tiles, Cesium ion users now have access to another high-resolution, up-to-date global imagery option to pair with Cesium World Terrain for precise and visually compelling context for 3D geospatial applications. 

Large scale projects require massive coordinated efforts from many people across many businesses, whether that’s grading hundreds of acres for new suburbs, laying thousands of miles of pipelines, or hauling tens of thousands of cubic yards of dirt from quarries. Even minor errors can be costly, and sharing a common ground between the many teams involved is critical.  

The 2025 Bentley Systems iTwin Activate cohort, with the theme of advancing infrastructure with Cesium and 3D Tiles, supports game-changing software at the intersection of infrastructure and the 3D geospatial ecosystem, connecting early-stage startups with experts, experiences, and funding.
