I build GeoServer by myself,and build vectortiles module, copy jar file to web-inf/lib directory, but when I restart GeoServer, it don't find vectortiles. How I can find its reason?

We are happy to announce the **deployment of Vector Tiles** on OpenStreetMap Foundation servers and the publication of the layer on the OSM website! We have been working hard to bring you a fresh look to OSM data, paired with exciting technological upgrades. Work has been progressing since last year. In June 2024 we shared progress, including the launch of the vector tiles demo site, as well as details on the technical background on the tools being used. Since then we have put the tile generation process through months of testing, focused on reliability and speed improvements, and gotten ready for full production use. Now, with integration of the vector tiles as a feature layer on the OpenStreetMap website, mappers and visitors get **a visual layer that is sharper and quicker, based on an entirely new backend**. A major benefit of vector tiles is adaptability, so developers can leverage this vector source to develop their own styles based on the existing Shortbread styles or write a new one and use the new OSMF-hosted tiles. To use OSMF vector tiles in a project, in a development or production environment, consult the Vector Tile Usage Policy. Note that the policy may be subject to change to address any issues that come up after this launch. From this point, you can expect further evolution of the Shortbread spec and styles. **Input on the direction, ideas, and issues with OSMF vector tiles are welcome**. Share in the appropriate repository: spirit for styles, tilekiln for tile generation, and shortbread-tiles for the tile content specification.

I'm trying to use https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/extensions/vectortiles/tutorial.html mapbox vector tiles to serve images on an Android App. OSMDroid doesn't work properly so we are trying to use Mapbox SDK. The problem with it is that it only support mapbox vector tiles, but to create a timeseries in GeoServer we need ImageMosaic. Using ImageMosaic we can't see the vector tiles options inside GeoWebCache settings. Is there a solution to this?

SHP (Shapefile) files are one of the most widely used vector data formats in the field of geographic information systems (GIS). They are indispensable in the field of handling various spatial data such as terrain, buildings, roads, and administrative districts. In particular, in recent years, the need to convert SHP data into map tiles (3DTiles, VectorTiles, etc.) and visualize them on the web has rapidly increased. In this article, we will introduce five excellent software that can directly read SHP files and output them as GIS tiles. A must-read for those who are working on data visualization and business efficiency! 1. QGIS Supported OS: Windows / macOS / Linux Price: Free (open source) Features: A flexible plugin system allows you to display, edit, and even convert SHP files into web tiles. Recommended uses: Urban planning, map learning in educational institutions, and introduction to GIS for beginners. 1. ArcGIS Pro Supported OS: Windows Price: Paid (commercial license) Features: Esri's high-performance GIS platform. Centralized management from SHP file analysis to spatial analysis and web distribution. Recommended uses: Large-scale projects in local governments, public works, and research institutions. 1. Global Mapper Supported OS: Windows Price: Paid (trial version available) Features: Intuitive UI for quick loading and processing of SHP files. Supports high-performance 3D display and point cloud processing. Recommended uses: For on-site use such as surveying, civil engineering, and drone mapping. 1. GISBox Supported OS: Windows Price: Paid (free trial available) Features: 3D GIS slice generation software. Convert SHP files to 3DTiles or VectorTiles with one click. Can also be directly distributed to Cesium, Wings Engine, etc. Recommended uses: Specialized in 3D spatial utilization for architecture, real estate, disaster prevention, smart city development, etc. 1. MapTiler Desktop Supported OS: Windows / macOS Price: Free plan available / Commercial license available Features: Specialized in generating web maps. Easily output base maps and MBTiles from SHP files. Recommended uses: Web developers, front-end GIS construction, lightweight map services. The key to utilizing SHP files is "visualization and distribution" SHP files are a treasure trove of spatial information assets accumulated at many sites. However, to share and utilize them with more people, tile visualization on the web is essential. By introducing tools that can easily convert SHP files into tiles, such as GISBox and MapTiler Desktop, you can significantly improve work efficiency.

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.
