Tiling, maps and visual services.

Technologies

• Tile matrix sets The shared definition of tile grids and zoom levels that lets tiles from different services line up.
• Vector tiles Pre-cut, compact geometry tiles styled in the client for fast, interactive maps.
• PMTiles single-file archives A whole tile pyramid in one file served by HTTP range requests, with no tile server to run.
• Raster map tiles and legacy map services Image tiles and map requests used by existing clients and agencies.
• Map rendering APIs Server-rendered maps on request through the modern OGC API family.
• Styles and symbology Portable descriptions of how features are drawn, for consistent maps across tools.
• Offline and low-bandwidth maps Packaged basemaps and data for field crews and sites without reliable backhaul.
