Open-source alternatives to Mapnik Vector Tile

A command line toolkit to generate maps, point clouds, 3D models and DEMs from drone, balloon or kite images. 📷

OpenOrienteering Mapper is a software for creating maps for the orienteering sport.

Libpostal is a C library designed for international address parsing and normalization. It utilizes statistical NLP and a language classifier to decompose unstructured global address strings into structured components and standardize street addresses by expanding abbreviations and resolving regional naming variations across multiple languages. The project provides tools for text transliteration, converting various scripts into standardized Latin-ASCII or NFD forms. It also includes capabilities for address deduplication, using symmetric fuzzy matching to identify whether different address reco

A command-line tool for converting heightmaps in GeoTIFF format into tiled optimized meshes.

Libvips is a C-based image processing library designed to manipulate large visual assets through a low-memory, parallel processing pipeline. It functions as a streaming image processor that avoids loading entire files into system memory, enabling the handling of massive images in resource-constrained environments. The library distinguishes itself through a demand-driven architecture that constructs a deferred execution plan, computing only the necessary pixels for a final output. By utilizing a cache-friendly tiled processing model and memory-mapped file access, it minimizes latency and redun

Port to C++ of JS GeoJSON-VT for slicing GeoJSON into vector tiles on the fly

C++ library for geographical raster data analysis

H3 is an open-source library that provides a hierarchical hexagonal grid system for geospatial indexing. It projects the Earth onto an icosahedron and tiles each face with hexagons to minimize distortion, then encodes each hexagon as a 64-bit integer that stores its resolution and position in the hierarchy. This integer encoding enables fast bitwise operations for grid navigation and spatial analysis. The library offers a comprehensive set of grid topology algorithms for computing neighbor relationships, distances, and paths between cells directly on the hexagonal grid without geographic coor

Indexes points and lines and generates map tiles to display them

Valhalla is an open-source routing engine that calculates optimal paths and travel times using OpenStreetMap data. It is built around a tiled routing graph framework, allowing map data to be organized into small geographic tiles for efficient regional updates and offline routing capability. The project distinguishes itself through a multimodal routing server that combines automobile, pedestrian, bicycle, and public transit modes into single journeys. It includes a GPS trace matching engine to align noisy coordinates to the most probable road network paths and an isochrone and matrix generator

A fast geospatial static point clustering library for C++14

Tippecanoe is a command-line tool used to generate optimized vector tiles for web maps. It converts large-scale geospatial datasets, including GeoJSON, CSV, and Geobuf files, into binary vector tiles or MBTiles SQLite databases. The project is designed to maintain map performance and visual quality across different zoom levels. It achieves this through geospatial data downsampling, which includes simplifying geometries and thinning point density to prevent tile overcrowding and keep tile sizes within specific limits. The tool provides extensive data transformation capabilities, such as attri
