Czml Distance Scaling

CZML Distance-Based Scaling & Visibility

• "scaleByDistance": { "nearFarScalar": [nearDistance, nearScale, farDistance, farScale] } — on "billboard", "point", "label", or "model", linearly interpolates a scale multiplier between nearScale (at nearDistance meters from the camera) and farScale (at farDistance meters), clamped outside that range. It multiplies the graphic's own size (e.g. "pixelSize"/"scale").
• "distanceDisplayCondition": { "distanceDisplayCondition": [nearDistance, farDistance] } — on the same graphics properties (or the shape itself), only renders the entity while the camera is between nearDistance and farDistance meters away.

Example: a billboard that scales down and disappears with distance
