gdal VS tippecanoe

TiTiler is a dynamic tile server built on FastAPI and Rasterio/GDAL. Its main features include support for Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF(COG), multiple projection methods, various output formats (JPEG, JP2, PNG, WEBP, GTIFF, NumpyTile), WMTS, and virtual mosaic. It also provides Lambda and ECS deployment environments using AWS CDK.

GDAL is the real heart, the python aspect is mostly wrappers around that I'm fairly sure. I love python for the record, the only reason I bring it up, is cause python haters accuse it of being slow, but QGIS drops down to C++ when speed is necessary, like most modern packages do.

gdal 0.15 (repo, docs), a set of Rust bindings for the GDAL library, used for access to geo-spatial data formats, is now out!

GDAL (Geospatial Data Abstraction Library) is a the geospatial data processing library. It handles a lot of Raster/Vector analysis and alteration. gdal_contour and gdal_rasterize which would be used to create isolines (contour lines) . There's more complex processing and analyses than that. More common is reprojecting multiple layers, and some that being as Vector files, into different coordiatne systems.

Access: GDAL

As an example we use GDAL heavily through its C# binds. We do all the additional data processing, that isn't done by the C++ GDAL, in C#. The final results are both Data (held in memory or temp exported to a file), and a normalized Raster Texture that we can display on a TextureRect. Most of the C# data processing scripts aren't even Inheriting from any Godot Class.

I think this would be the best way to handle this. GDAL is what you should look into for this project.

If you have any geospatial data, you can tile it with tippecanoe [0], which gives you an mbtiles file. Protomaps lets you easily convert the mbtiles file into a protomaps file which you can then use.

Protomaps doesn’t limit you to any particular type of tiles, it’s just a format which allows you to read tiles out of a single file with HTTP range requests.

or you can build several geojson add the zoom level at feature with their extension and then merge into one geojson. https://github.com/mapbox/tippecanoe

Unsure how to do it with qgis. however it seems to be simple with Tippecanoe..here. They seem to have some examples that show what you need to do in the readme.

For my work when I asked that question, I had all vector data -- about 10gb -- and I used a combination of geojson's and vector tiles that I made using mapbox's tippecanoe.

Author here, so there are a few options:

1) If your information belongs in OpenStreetMap, you can add it via an editor like the web editor at https://openstreetmap.org - this will also benefit all other OSM users. You can then "refresh" your Protomaps download to get a new map.

2) If there isn't many point and polygons, it may sense to add them as Leaflet layers, especially if you want them to be interactive

3) Other options are creating vector tiles of your own data and merging or displaying them in the renderer (https://github.com/mapbox/tippecanoe is a great tool to do this from GeoJSON) but I don't have much to support this yet.
