About The Project

Follow up on folium-vectorgrid that wraps Leaflet.VectorTileLayer to render Mapbox vector tiles in folium maps.

Other than Leaflet.VectorGrid, Leaflet.VectorTileLayer allows to "overzoom" and "underzoom". Even if the tiling provider only provides map tiles for zoom level 5 through 12, Leaflet.VectorTileLayer utilizes data from these upper and lower bounds to render tiles beyond zoom level 12 and 5 respectively.

Usage

from folium_vectortilelayer import VectorTileLayer
import folium

url = "https://free.tilehosting.com/data/v3/{z}/{x}/{y}.pbf?token=my_token"

m = folium.Map()
options = {
    "layers": ["my_layer"], # define layer to be shown
    # min zoom of your map,
    # if minZoom < minDetailZoom features in minDetailZoom level are used
    # for minDetailZoom to minZoom
    "minZoom": 8,
    # max zoom of your map,
    # if maxZoom > maxDetailZoom features in maxDetailZoom level are used
    # for maxDetailZoom to maxZoom
    "maxZoom": 18,
    # min zoom level provided by source
    "minDetailZoom": 10,
    # max zoom level provided by source
    "maxDetailZoom": 13,
    "vectorTileLayerStyles": {
        "my_layer":{
            "fill": True,
            "weight": 1,
            "fillColor": 'green',
            "color": 'black',
            "fillOpacity":0.6,
            "opacity":0.6
        },
    }
}

vc = VectorTileLayer(url, "folium_layer_name", options)
m.add_child(vc)
m

Or with conditional styling

import folium
from folium_vectortilelayer import VectorTileLayer

m = folium.Map()
url = "https://free.tilehosting.com/data/v3/{z}/{x}/{y}.pbf?token=my_token"

options = '''{
  "layers": ["my_layer"],
  "vectorTileLayerStyles": {
    "my_layer": function(f) {
      if (f.type === 'parks') {
        return {
          "fill": true,
          "weight": 1,
          "fillColor": 'green',
          "color": 'black',
          "fillOpacity":0.6,
          "opacity":0.6
        };
      }

      if (f.type === 'water') {
        return {
          "fill": true,
          "weight": 1,
          "fillColor": 'purple',
          "color": 'black',
          "fillOpacity":0.6,
          "opacity":0.6
        };
      }
    }
  }
}'''

VectorTileLayer(url,"layer_name",options).add_to(m)
