FAQ
MBTILES to SVGZ 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 SVGZ files?
SVGZ is an extension attached to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) images with GZIP compression. Such files can contain animations or interactive graphics, including vector objects, images and text, while supporting layer rendering, transparency, filter effects and several other features. As a version of SVG, the SVGZ format is based on an open standard and uses the XML markup language, being supported by most web browsers. The main advantage of SVGZ over its uncompressed variant is size, which can be 20 to 50 percent smaller.
