Instructions for use
The Scene tab's Data group and the context menu of layers in the layer manager organize the functionality for adding various data to the scene.
As long as the extent of the dataset is within "Top=90, Bottom=-90, Left=-180, Right=180", it can be added to the scene window. Currently, data supported for adding to the scene includes 2D/3D point/line/region datasets, text datasets, network datasets, image datasets, raster datasets, image tile data, terrain tile data, models, KML data, images, 3D tiles, and online services.
To add data of the dataset type to the scene, you can select the dataset to be added in the workspace manager and drag it directly to the scene; or choose Add to New Scene or Add to Current Scene in the dataset's context menu. Batch adding of datasets is supported. For adding other types of data to the scene, it is usually only possible through corresponding buttons and panels.
The following are the functions of the controls in the Scene tab's Data group:
The following are the data addition-related functions in the context menu for Normal Layer and Terrain Layer in the layer manager:
Open iServer Service Scene Terrain Layer
Note:- When adding a raster dataset to the scene, a prompt dialog will appear, requiring confirmation of whether to load the raster dataset as terrain data or image data to the scene. When adding multiple raster datasets, by checking "Perform this operation for all datasets", they can be loaded to the scene in a unified manner.
- When adding a text dataset to the scene, the text style of the text dataset is used by default; that is, the style displayed in the 2D map will remain the same when loaded into the 3D scene.
- When overly large image data is loaded into the scene, a prompt dialog will appear, suggesting to create an image pyramid before loading it. When loading multiple image datasets, if the user checks "Perform this operation for all datasets", all large memory image datasets will create image pyramids and be loaded into the scene.
- Due to different data loading strategies, when adding the same model dataset to the same scene in different geographic coordinate systems and projected coordinate systems, the positions of the two model data may be offset in the scene.
