That's exactly what PMTiles is for, and there's nothing in it specific to maps or geographic coordinates, just a Z/X/Y pyramid structure. I chose to support Leaflet for now because it is very popular; there's other viewers like OpenSeadragon for which a decoder plugin would be possible.
- TheTaytay 5y agoFantastic. The renderer I was using was indeed leaflet based, so this sounds drop-in easy. I just read through https://github.com/protomaps/PMTiles https://github.com/protomaps/PMTiles Nice work! The only downside would be that these maps are often re-rendered periodically and only have a few tiles that actually get updated. In that case, it’s nice to have to update only a handful of files. But I think the benefits would far outweigh the costs. Upload one massive file repeatedly is still gonna be faster I would think. Thanks!
