Locally serve geospatial raster tiles in the Slippy Map standard.
Project description
🌐 Local Tile Server for Geospatial Rasters
Need to visualize a rather large (gigabytes+) raster? This is for you.
A Python package for serving tiles from large raster files in
the Slippy Maps standard
(i.e., /zoom/x/y.png) for visualization in Jupyter with ipyleaflet or folium.
Launch a demo on MyBinder
Documentation: https://localtileserver.banesullivan.com/
Built on rio-tiler
🌟 Highlights
- Launch a tile server for large geospatial images
- View local or remote* raster files with
ipyleafletorfoliumin Jupyter - View rasters with CesiumJS with the built-in web application
*remote raster files should be pre-tiled Cloud Optimized GeoTiffs
🚀 Usage
Usage details and examples can be found in the documentation: https://localtileserver.banesullivan.com/
The following is a minimal example to visualize a local raster file with
ipyleaflet:
from localtileserver import get_leaflet_tile_layer, TileClient
from ipyleaflet import Map
# First, create a tile server from local raster file
client = TileClient('path/to/geo.tif')
# Create ipyleaflet tile layer from that server
t = get_leaflet_tile_layer(client)
m = Map(center=client.center(), zoom=client.default_zoom)
m.add(t)
m
ℹ️ Overview
The TileClient class can be used to to launch a tile server in a background
thread which will serve raster imagery to a viewer (usually ipyleaflet or
folium in Jupyter notebooks).
This tile server can efficiently deliver varying resolutions of your raster imagery to your viewer; it helps to have pre-tiled, Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs).
There is an included, standalone web viewer leveraging CesiumJS.
⬇️ Installation
Get started with localtileserver to view rasters in Jupyter or deploy as your
own Flask application.
