FAQ
PMTILES to DXF Conversion
What are PMTILES files?
PMTILES is a single file that holds a whole web map, cut into thousands or millions of small tiles at every zoom level. Normally a map like this is stored as a huge folder tree with one file per tile, which is slow to upload and needs a server to hand out the right pieces. PMTiles packs all of them into one file with a built-in index, so it can simply be put on cheap file storage in the cloud, and a map in a browser downloads only the tiles it needs to show the current view. The format was created by Protomaps, and it can hold vector tiles, which stay sharp at any zoom, as well as pictures such as aerial or satellite imagery.
What are DXF files?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is a format associated with AutoCAD, a popular program used for computer-aided design by engineers, architects and other professionals in the field of building design and construction. The DXF format was developed in the early 1980s by Autodesk with the purpose of increasing the interoperability between AutoCAD and other CAD or advanced image design programs. It supports 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional drawings, and can be opened using a wide array of image processing programs.
