Cesium3DTile

new Cesium.Cesium3DTile(tileset, baseResource, header, parent)

A tile in a Cesium3DTileset. When a tile is first created, its content is not loaded; the content is loaded on-demand when needed based on the view.

Do not construct this directly, instead access tiles through Cesium3DTileset#tileVisible.

Name Type Description
tileset Cesium3DTileset The tileset
baseResource Resource The base resource for the tileset
header object The JSON header for the tile
parent Cesium3DTile The parent tile of the new tile

Gets the I3S Node for the tile.
This tile's parent or undefined if this tile is the root.

When a tile's content points to an external tileset JSON file, the external tileset's root tile's parent is not undefined; instead, the parent references the tile (with its content pointing to an external tileset JSON file) as if the two tilesets were merged.
