Description

Hi, I'd like to see Cesium support for the flatgeobuf format. It's an excellent, compressed, and spatially indexed alternative for geojson vector data.

Research direction

The issue names FlatGeobuf support for Cesium but does not identify files, tests, or an entry point. Start by reading the linked FlatGeobuf documentation and locating Cesium's existing GeoJSON or vector-data support. Done would require a defined integration scope and acceptance criteria for loading and displaying FlatGeobuf data.
