| ## Overview | ||
|
|
||
| This extension introduces a new [tile metadata semantic](https://github.com/CesiumGS/3d-tiles/blob/main/specification/Metadata/Semantics/README.adoc#tile) `TILE_CONTENT_COUNT` for indicating the number of contents referenced by each tile in an implicit tileset. This is more efficient than the existing [multiple contents approach](https://github.com/CesiumGS/3d-tiles/tree/main/specification/ImplicitTiling#multiple-contents) when tiles have a widely varying number of contents. |

Can you mix this extension with the existing approach to handling multiple contents?

This extension provides a more efficient way for representing multiple contents in implicit tilesets, especially when tiles have a widely varying number of contents.
It does this through a new tile metadata semantic called
TILE_CONTENT_COUNT.This is one of three extension for supporting time-dynamic 3D Tiles: #102 (comment)
