Using the Cesium viewer
The 3D visualisations are powered by Cesium. Here are some quick instructions on how to use explore the globe in Cesium:
- Left click and drag - Rotates the camera around the globe in 3D and translates the camera over the map surface in 2D and Columbus view.
- Right click and drag - Zooms the camera in and out.
- Middle wheel scrolling - Also zooms the camera in and out.
- Middle click and drag - Rotates the camera around the point on the surface of the globe.
If you are using a trackpad on a laptop without a mouse, holding the control key acts the same as the middle mouse button
