MBUtil ZYX is a fork of the MBUtil utility for importing and exporting the MBTiles format including the ZYX scheme from vips dzsave --google.
This fork was created and published to PyPI because the currently published version of mbutil on PyPI does not include the ZYX scheme.
Git checkout (requires git)
git clone https://github.com/larsmaxfield/mbutil_zyx.git
cd mbutil_zyx
# get usage
./mb-util-zyx -h
Then to install the mb-util-zyx command globally:
sudo python setup.py install
# then you can run:
mb-util-zyx
Python installation (requires easy_install)
easy_install mbutil_zyx
mb-util-zyx -h
$ mb-util-zyx -h
Usage: mb-util-zyx [options] input output
Examples:
Export an mbtiles file to a directory of files:
$ mb-util-zyx world.mbtiles tiles # tiles must not already exist
Import a directory of tiles into an mbtiles file:
$ mb-util-zyx tiles world.mbtiles # mbtiles file must not already exist
Options:
-h, --help Show this help message and exit
--scheme=SCHEME Tiling scheme of the tiles. Default is "xyz" (z/x/y),
other options are "tms" which is also z/x/y
but uses a flipped y coordinate, and "wms" which replicates
the MapServer WMS TileCache directory structure "z/000/000/x/000/000/y.png"''',
and "zyx" which is the format vips dzsave --layout google uses.
--image_format=FORMAT
The format of the image tiles, either png, jpg, webp or pbf
--grid_callback=CALLBACK
Option to control JSONP callback for UTFGrid tiles. If
grids are not used as JSONP, you can
remove callbacks specifying --grid_callback=""
--do_compression Do mbtiles compression
--silent Dictate whether the operations should run silently
Export an `mbtiles` file to files on the filesystem:
mb-util-zyx World_Light.mbtiles adirectory
Import a directory into a `mbtiles` file
mb-util-zyx directory World_Light.mbtiles
- Python
>= 2.6
MBUtil ZYX imports and exports metadata as JSON, in the root of the tile directory, as a file named metadata.json.
