🚀 Introducing QGIS2VectorTiles!

#QGIS plugin which turn your project into a lightweight #VectorTiles package for WMS/WMTS serving or easy sharing.

✅ Converts all vector sources to a single .mbtiles/XYZ using #GDAL.
✅ Preserves rich styling (renderers, labeling, expressions etc).
✅ Generates a .qlr for easy sharing.
⏩ Generates a client-side #MapLibre styling (In Dev).

Thanks to @underdarkGIS @nyalld @EvenRouault & all #FOSS #GIS community that made this possible!

#30DayMapChallenge day 2: Lines 🗺️ Mapped Rotterdam’s watery past through street names with pre- and suffixes like singel, boezem, sloot, vaart, haven, and gedempte. These names trace water infrastructure. Some still flowing, others filled in.

#30DayMapChallenge 2025 day 1: points

Inspired by my stay in Maastricht performing Carl Orff's #CarminaBurana with Brabant Koor & the Jussen Brothers.

Today’s map shows Dutch place names ending in -tricht, -drecht, -trecht—derived from Latin Trajectum, meaning river crossing. #toponyms

Maastricht = Mosa Trajectum.

Made with #QGIS #OpenStreetMap and #vectortiles from @maptiler.bsky.social

Someone commented on my feedback form tjat "footpaths on low zooms are still missing". I think that is a feature for a more specialized map.

I think it is possible to use script to configure the map, like for outdoor/hiking/biking etc, by manipulating the styles - for example display footpaths in lower zoom levels than now, and possible style them to be more visible.

If you have ideas, using that form - linked in the map's about dialog - or even here is fine. I'm looking at displaying national parks and some other protected areas based om a comment here, for example.

Thank you for inspiration :)
