Cesium 3D Maps and Data Platform

Cesium is a global leader in the 3D geospatial industry, famously creating the 3D Tiles open standard. Originally developed as an internal project within Analytical Graphics, Inc. (AGI) to visualize satellites in space, it evolved into a comprehensive platform for streaming massive 3D datasets. The brand is synonymous with high-performance 3D mapping and is widely used across industries such as aerospace, defense, urban planning, and gaming.

In early 2024, Cesium was acquired by Bentley Systems, a major international software development company focused on infrastructure engineering. While Cesium continues to operate and innovate from its Philadelphia-based headquarters, it now benefits from the global resources and distribution networks of Bentley Systems. The platform's software is developed primarily in the United States, utilizing cloud-native architectures for global accessibility.
