Have the GUI present information concerning the displayed/used data

[EricBoix]

When using UD-Viz, one has no simple way (through the GUI itself) to retrieve information (sources/characteristics/description) concerning the displayed data. For example when a 3DTiles is displayed we have no mean to know where it comes from: which computational process produced it, what is the exact geographical scope, at which historical date corresponds what is displayed...

Assuming that each data set has a some description field (metadata?) have UD-Viz display that textual information.

Note: the current technical way of doing this, consists in trapping the networked access to the data with the browser debugging tool, taking the URL, using wget on that URL and inspect the retrieved data...

In addition, we might need to add the logos of the partners which provide data used in the demos (e.g. Grand Lyon for the 3D model and the terrain, Patrimoine Auvergne Rhone Alpes for the documents, etc.) in the top bar of UDV.

If we assuming that these metadata are here (partners name, logo path, historical date and so on) should we not create a C3DTExtension and then SideBarWidget could display them ?

[valentinMachado]

We could enhance the layerchoice widget to display source (url) of each layer.

We could also display tileset.json metadata in show room see but it will be only for 3DTiles though

In addition we should inject the about.md converted in html (like in show room example) in each example

Py3DTilers should write information (date, author, city, licence, projection,...) about 3DTiles tilesets it creates, see this issue
