FAQ
MBTILES to BMP Conversion
What are MBTILES files?
MBTILES is a single file that holds a ready-made map cut into small square tiles at many zoom levels. A web or mobile map does not draw the whole world at once but loads only the tiles that are visible, and an MBTiles file keeps all of them together, so a whole map can be copied to a phone, a tablet, or a server and used without an internet connection. The tiles can be pictures, such as PNG, JPEG, or WebP images, or compact vector tiles, which stay sharp at every scale. The format was created by Mapbox and has become a common way of storing and distributing map tiles, including the OpenStreetMap-based map data that is sold or published as ready-made packages.
What are BMP files?
The BMP or Bitmap file format is a popular raster graphic format, compatible with a wide array of image processing software, both on PC and Mac computers. BMP files store grids of pixels and detailed information concerning color tones and shades, and are highly appreciated for their ability to provide increased quality images. However, due to the lack of any compression algorithm in storing pixel data, BMP images can often be very large in size and thus difficult to store or transfer.
