Tippecanoe

Tippecanoe is a high-performance, open-source C++ command-line utility: it rapidly converts large GeoJSON, Geobuf, or CSV feature collections into optimized vector tilesets.

Tippecanoe is the core utility for transforming massive geospatial datasets into web-ready vector tiles. This C++ application processes input formats like GeoJSON, Geobuf, and CSV, outputting them as single-file MBTiles or PMTiles archives. It automatically manages critical cartographic details: the tool efficiently calculates optimal minimum and maximum zoom levels and intelligently drops features at low zoom to maintain performance and visual clarity on dense maps. Originally developed by Mapbox and currently maintained by Felt, Tippecanoe ensures your large-scale data is rendered quickly and precisely across all web map clients.
