mapchete prerocesses input data as tile pyramids for web maps.
mapchete handles all the resampling, data cutting & cropping and parallelizing of a user-defined process so all you have to do is defining what shall happen with the data within a tile and the tool handles the rest.
Please see the example configuration and example process to catch an idea how it works.
There are two main functions:
mapchete_execute.py <mapchete_file>
Executes a process. This is intended to batch seed your output pyramid.
mapchete_serve.py <mapchete_file>
Starts a http server on localhost:5000 which hosts a simple OpenLayers page and a WMTS simple endpoint. This is intended to process on-demand and show just the current map extent to facilitate process calibration.
With both commands you can also limit the processing zoom levels and bounding box with a -z```and a -b`` parameter respectively. This overrules the zoom level and output bounds settings in the mapchete configuration file.
Clone repository and run
python setup.py install
or use pip:
pip install mapchete
- have a mapchete process as data input option for another process
- store in GeoPackage, not just single tiles in the filesystem
- add .SAFE archive (Sentinel-2) as data input option
- add Spherical Mercator (EPSG:3857) tile pyramid support
