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 a custom tm2source
project based on the import mapping and
tools to scale exporting of the vectortiles horizontally.
Tileserver
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.
Flow
Development
We use Docker extensively for development and deployment.
Start up your PostGIS container with the data container attached.
docker-compose up -d postgis
Import PBF files from the local import
directory.
The import container will automatically download a PBF of Zurich for testing.
docker-compose run imposm3
Import SHP files from the local import
directory. Or if there is now shapefile available the container will automatically download the water polygons shapefile from OpenStreetMapData.com
docker-compose run importwater
Export the data as MBTiles file to the export
directory.
docker-compose run tilelive
Run the tileserver from export
directory.
docker-compose up tileserver
