Components
The project consists of several components.
Import
Import toolchain based on Imposm 3 to import OpenStreetMap data into a PostGIS database. The mapping is optimized for fast generation of vectortiles.
Export
Export toolchain consisting of our custom tm2source project based on the import mapping and tools to scale exporting of the vectortiles horizontally.
Serve
A very easy tileserver where you can simply drop in your tm2 style project and our produced mbtiles file
and it will serve a custom styled OSM map.
Development
We use Docker extensively for development and deployment. The easiest way to get started is using Docker Compose.
Start up your PostGIS container with the data container attached.
docker-compose up -d postgis
In order to render the oceans you need to import the water polygons
from OpenStreetMapData.com.
Run the import-water container.
docker-compose up import-water
Download a PBF and put it into the local import directory.
wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/metro-extracts.mapzen.com/zurich_switzerland.osm.pbf
Now you need to import the PBF files into PostGIS.
docker-compose up import
Export the data as MBTiles file to the export directory.
docker-compose up export
Serve the tiles as raster tiles from export directory.
docker-compose up serve
