I’d like to request native support in FME for reading B3DM files, which are a core component of the OGC 3D Tiles standard. B3DM is widely used in web-based GIS applications, especially with CesiumJS and other 3D visualization platforms.

Currently, FME can write 3D Tiles but cannot read them. For workflows such as converting 3D Tiles to OBJ, IFC, or CityGML, a native B3DM Reader would be extremely valuable.

Direct import of B3DM would greatly enhance FME’s capabilities in 3D GIS and BIM workflows and improve interoperability with open standards. I hope this feature will be considered in a future release.

 

Greetings Michael!

Safe is always at the forefront of those topics, I believe we’ll have a solution for this in the near future. Thanks to the team at Safe for the outstanding work.

As B3DM is essentially just GLTF with an extra header I think that this would get supported if Safe ever decide to add a GLTF Reader > 

Ideally this work would support i3dm, cmpt, gltf, glb and b3dm. 

The it’s not too much further to just go all the way and add a 3DTiles Reader
