Vector Tiles

{{ activity_source_note("VectorTileActivity.kt") }}

You can specify where to load MVTs (which sometimes have .pbf extension) by creating a TileSet object with template parameters (for example {z} which will be replaced with the zoom level).

MapLibre has a repo with some example vector tiles with the OpenMapTiles schema around Innsbruck, Austria. In the example we load these MVTs and create a line layer for the road network.
