How to convert FBX to 3D Tiles in GISBox

In the field of GIS (Geographic Information System) and 3D modeling, data conversion between different formats is a common requirement. FBX (FilmBox), as a universal 3D file format developed by Autodesk, is widely used in 3D animation, game development, and virtual reality. However, in some application scenarios, we may need to convert FBX files to 3DTiles format for efficient streaming and rendering of 3D geospatial data on platforms such as Cesium. As a powerful GIS toolbox, GISBox provides a convenient solution for converting from FBX to 3DTiles format.

Introduction to GISBox

GISBox is a toolbox that integrates multiple GIS functions, supports common GIS file format processing, and has efficient data format conversion capabilities. Among them, the format conversion from FBX to 3DTiles is a highlight of GISBox. Whether you are an old hand or a novice in the GIS field, you can easily solve the problem of data format conversion through GISBox.

FBX to 3DTiles conversion steps

  1. Create a new slice task

First open the software, select the “Slice” module on the left, and then click the “New” button in the upper right corner.

  1. Import FBX file

Just import the FBX file into the GISBox toolbox, and the system will automatically recognize its content.

  1. Set conversion parameters

Select the appropriate slicing scheme according to your needs, such as level of detail (LOD) or texture optimization.

  1. Generate 3DTiles file with one click

Click “OK”, GISBox can quickly generate 3DTiles files that meet the requirements of platforms such as Cesium, and view them in “Distribution-Model Service”.

As a powerful GIS toolbox, GISBox provides a convenient solution for converting from FBX to 3DTiles format. Through simple operation steps and efficient conversion capabilities, GISBox can help users easily solve the problem of data format conversion. Whether you are a professional or a novice in the GIS field, you can easily achieve the conversion from FBX to 3DTiles through GISBox, providing strong support for the visualization, rendering and interaction of three-dimensional geospatial data.
