MVT Wrangler

A high-performance CLI tool for modifying Mapbox Vector Tile (MVT) archives with spatial and attribute filters.

We use this at KotobaMedia to make a Japan-oriented variant of Protomaps' tiles generated from OpenStreetMap without having to download and reprocess OpenStreetMap data from scratch.

Status

This repository is archived in favor of using Planetiler directly.

Please use Planetiler instead of mvt-wrangler. For a concrete example, see our Planetiler-based fork: KotobaMedia/basemaps-japan.
