Update reference card for 3D Tiles 1.1 #703
Comments
So it would be like a "what's new in 3D Tiles 1.1?" reference card? Even though I wasn't thinking that originally that's probably the right thing to do.
It would be fine to omit
There could be a separate resource that describes all the recommended glTF extensions. Which is reminiscent of the glTF geospatial profile: KhronosGroup/glTF#2092 |
Right now, we have the Two options come to my mind:
Also: I'd do this update in a state that is branched off from Here's the 'release candidate': |
This option seems good. Have you thought about where the PDFs would go and how the README's would be updated?

The current reference card PDF is in the root directory. I considered to move it to the The main README.md now links to the Entry point from main README: https://github.com/javagl/3d-tiles/tree/draft-1.1-reference-card-update#3d-tiles-reference-cards The PR is at #706 (This PR does NOT yet remove the |

Yeah, I think we can start that process now by removing Once |
One point of #651 that had still been on my plate (and been waiting there for too long) is the update of the reference card for 3D Tiles 1.1. To avoid filling the repo with commits of SVG (or even worse, binaries like PDFs), certain points can probably be sorted out here.
I assume that the result should be a dedicated reference card for the new features of 3D Tiles 1.1. Specifically, I assume that it should not combine the reference card of 1.0 and the reference card for 'Next'. Instead, it should rather be an update of the former 'Next' reference card.
Two broader, structural questions:
Where/how to present the S2 extension?
It could be a dedicated section at the end, to make clear that it is not part of "3D Tiles (core) 1.1". Or it might be omitted in the reference card altogether: It only was a short section to present the extension, but in terms of contents, it was not adding much value beyond the main S2 README.
Where/how to present the glTF extensions?
There already is some confusion, and people think that the glTF extensions are somehow "part of" Next/1.1. Also, the glTF extensions have been split into
mesh_features
andstructural_metadata
in the meantime. One could mentionstructural_metadata
as one implementations of the 3D Metadata Specification. But this should be done carefully, with a disclaimer: Technically, this extension is not part of 3D Tiles.For now, I think that it could make sense to omit the page "The EXT_mesh_features Extension" from the 'Next' reference card. This could be moved into a short (1-2 pages) but dedicated overview of the proposed
mesh_features
andstructural_metadata
extensions.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
