What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the conversion of large spatial datasets into efficient PMTiles vector tilesets, making them suitable for web-based mapping and visualization.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PMTiles Generation: Converts sf objects, files, or SQL queries into .pmtiles format.
  • Large Dataset Handling: Optimized for datasets exceeding 10k features or memory limits, using streaming and efficient engines.
  • Visualization Integration: Facilitates easy visualization with tools like mapgl and local serving.
  • Use Case: You have a GeoParquet file with millions of points that is too large to load directly into a web map. Use this Skill to generate a PMTiles file that can be efficiently served and displayed.

Quick Start

Use the r-freestiler skill to convert the attached file 'large_data.gpkg' into 'output.pmtiles'.
