Chose which layers are included in the 3D Tiles output #27

Open lilleyse opened 3 years ago

lilleyse commented 3 years ago

This CLI option would allow a user to choose which layers in the CDB they'd like to include in the 3D Tiles output.

There are a couple use cases for this:

If two elevation datasets are present, chose just one of them (e.g primary elevantion and bathymetry)
Export vector layers separately from terrain/imagery/building layers
let client select the component selector for each layer to combine

Feedback from https://github.com/CesiumGS/cdb-to-3dtiles/pull/33

The converter will process all the datasets even if some of them will not be included in the combined tilesets. I think better behavior would be to only process those datasets that are needed. This will speed up processing time if someone is only concerned about one dataset.
