Geo Visualisation Components

Geo Visualisation Components is an experimental web-visualisation library for geospatial data. In early development by Geospatial Research Institute Toi Hanagarau and written in TypeScript.

The library is not yet fully featured and is not ready for production use.

Getting Started

Requirements

Required Software

• Node.JS / npm (Node Package Manager)

Required Credentials

• Cesium access token (API token to retrieve map data from Cesium)

Installing the library into an existing Vue project

See Digital Twins for an example of a Vue app using this library.

1. Install geo-visualisation-components:
   npm install geo-visualisation-components

2. Configure WebPack to copy Cesium assets into the public served folder. See Digital Twins/visualisation/vue.config.js for an example of this.
   Note: This library defaults CESIUM_BASE_URL to './', if you change this then you will have to change the file structure shown in the config file and vice versa.
