Cesium Version 1.3 Released

We are pleased to announce that Cesium version 1.3 is now available for download. While this is mostly a bugfix release, there were some minor enhancements:

• Added support to the CesiumTerrainProvider for terrain tiles with more than 64K vertices, which is common for sub-meter terrain.
• Added Primitive.compressVertices. When true (default), geometry vertices are compressed to save GPU memory.
• Reduced the amount of GPU memory used by billboards and labels.

Other recent news and postings:

• A guest blog post by André Santos on his experience porting youbeQ from the Google Earth Plugin to Cesium.
• GPlates showcase
• IGN showcase
• Cesium-GWT 0.2.0 released
• Cesium is growing and AGI is hiring
