Install the extension:
python setup.py install
Enable the plugin in your CKAN config file:
ckan.plugins = cesium_viewer
Restart your webserver after installation.
The extension integrates National Map’s Cesium-based viewer for previewing geospatial resources. The viewer will automatically be available as a preview option for compatible geospatial data formats.
Dependencies:
- Uses https://github.com/mapbox/geojson-extent for GeoJSON extent calculations
- Requires compatible geospatial data formats (GeoJSON, KML, etc.)
- Integrates with National Map platform
Note: This extension was specifically developed for data.gov.au but can be adapted for other CKAN instances requiring Cesium-based geospatial previews. The extension provides the viewer plugin infrastructure - specific National Map features may require additional configuration or customization depending on your use case.
No additional configuration settings documented - the extension works out of the box once the cesium_viewer plugin is enabled.
