Custom bathymetry tilesets with MTS
Blog post from Mapbox
The recently launched bathymetry style and tileset by Mapbox transforms ocean layers into detailed landscapes, providing essential context for maritime navigation and marine sciences. Utilizing the Mapbox Tiling Service (MTS), users can process various bathymetry data sources into custom tilesets that are continuously updated as data changes, thanks to an auto-scaling, distributed processing infrastructure. MTS allows developers to upload source data with transformation rules, or 'recipes,' which define how data is processed into vector tiles, offering customization options like zoom level extent and geometry simplification. These tilesets, initially private, can be styled and composited with other vector tilesets in Mapbox Studio. To optimize performance and style, developers can refine their tilesets by manipulating source data through recipe configurations, which ensure efficient and visually appealing map outputs.
