Known Issue

  1. raster layer & background layer are not supported yet.

  2. WARNING: Too many active WebGL contexts. Oldest context will be lost

    The maximum number of webgl context is 16 in chrome, and each MVTImageryProvider has its own webgl context for rendering. If too many MVTImageryProvider instance is created, the above warning may be raised and errors will occure in cesiumjs. So destroy the unused provider first, ensure that the total webgl context number not exceeds the limitation of your browser.
