If you create, or are curious about, #VectorTiles, you may have come across the command line utility #Tippecanoe (TIP-ə-kə-NOO). It’s probably no secret that its usage is not entirely trivial, but there is a helpful tool for this now. spatialists.ch/posts/2025/04-0 #GIS #GISchat #geospatial #SwissGIS

Despite all the mega boundary mapping lately, our map just got a lot leaner and faster. Map tiles have shrunk by as much as 96% compared to last year! #MicDrop

Also in this month’s update, some nice tweaks and additions to the main style and a proper sendoff to @run_for_funner:

OpenHistoricalMap Forum · Better performance, less clutter, and the end of an eraGood write-up @Minh_Nguyen !! I’d like to add a few statistics about tile sizes and PostGIS query performance. Overall, the optimization went well — it significantly reduced both the size and rendering time of the tiles, especially for the most expensive layer: land_ohm_lines. 📏 Vector Tile Size Statistics 🔗 View Tile Stats – San José Metric 🔴 Before Optimization 🟢 After Optimization Improvement Total tiles 18 9 📦 Fewer tiles due to ...

Lately I've been working with vector tiles, building footprints and different tools. I'm getting warped geometries using #tippecanoe and #ogr2ogr, but the effects of simplification are much less noticeable with Martin. I have tested a lot of different parameter combinations with tippecanoe but couldn't improve the results. Any idea what else can I try?

Martin is generating the tiles directly from postgres using the native CRS of the data (epsg:25830) without prior reprojection. #vectortiles

New source of #OpenStreetMap #VectorTiles, but this time it's from @pnorman and hosted on OSMF hardware!

OpenStreetMap Community Forum · Vector tiles on OSMF hardwareHello all, as a follow up to the vector tiles discussed previously, they are now running on OSMF hardware. The usage policy is not yet final, but you can use it now. The tilejson is at https://vector.openstreetmap.org/shortbread_v1/tilejson.json and the tiles are at https://vector.openstreetmap.org/shortbread_v1/{z}/{x}/{y}.mvt. This is a final production location, so you can build stuff based off of it. I’m sure there are still some bugs, but this soft launch should reveal them. The demo pag...
