This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
TileAlchemist
TileAlchemist builds new map layers from an existing OpenStreetMap vector
tile archive. You write a profile, a short Python file that decides what
each tile of your layer contains, and tilealchemist convert runs it over
every tile of a PMTiles archive such as an OpenFreeMap or Protomaps planet.
Each profile becomes a PMTiles file of its own, for example a land layer:
each tile minus its water.
It reads archives on the local disk in the OpenMapTiles or Protomaps schema, decodes each distinct tile once for all profiles, and uses every CPU core. To build from a remote archive across many machines, use tilealchemist-pipeline; to build from raw OpenStreetMap extracts, use TileDistillery.
Getting started
pip install tilealchemist
Requires Python 3.11 or later. Then follow Build your first layer, about 15 minutes. The documentation covers the rest. To work on tilealchemist itself, see CONTRIBUTING.md.
License and attribution
The code is
MIT-licensed.
The data in every layer derives from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap
contributors, ODbL) and must be attributed. Each layer carries the
attribution of the archive it was built from; see
