I was having a conversation with a coworker and was looking for exactly what Tile38 is, telling them the amazing kinds of realtime-GIS things available out there, and I remember seeing this a while back but didn't remember the name. Thanks for jogging my memory.
I'd love to see a writeup on how you efficiently did this (I'm assuming protobufs?). I'm constantly telling one of my clients (gov) that it's no longer a big deal to show even 10,000 points on a map thanks to Mapbox GL etc in a performant way, without relying on GeoJSON. Now I can show this proof of concept.
- ptrott2017 8y agoI have used Tile38 for a couple of internal demo experiments this year and hoping to push the projects into production next year (budget allowing). If you are looking for a realtime-GIS with geofencing support out of the box - it is an ideal match. Docs really are great. Its very easy to get quick demos up and use. The code base is a joy to work with. It is a really really good project. Would also love to see a write up of the 11 million points with Tile 38 - that is a really nice demo.
- atonse 8y agoGood to hear! I’ll definitely play with it when I have some free time.
