tippecanoe 2.45.0

Builds vector tilesets from large (or small) collections of GeoJSON, FlatGeobuf, or CSV features

tippecanoe Python Distributions

A project that packages tippecanoe as a Python package, enabling tippecanoe to be installed from PyPI:

pip install tippecanoe

or used as part of build-system.requires in a pyproject.toml file:

[build-system]
requires = ["tippecanoe"]

After installation, the Python bin directory for console scripts may need to be added to your path (or if installing in a venv, activate the venv). Commands installed are: tippecanoe, tile-join, tippecanoe-decode, tippecanoe-enumerate, tippecanoe-json-tool, and tippecanoe-overzoom.

PyPI package versions will follow the major.minor.patch version numbers of tippecanoe releases.

Binary wheels for macOS and Linux for most CPU architectures supported on PyPI are provided. ARM wheels for Raspberry Pi available at https://www.piwheels.org/project/tippecanoe/.
