tippecanoe -o my_data.mbtiles -zg --drop-densest-as-needed output.geojson Use code with caution. -o my_data.mbtiles : Specifies the output file name.
: Run Tippecanoe on the GeoJSON file to create a vector MBTiles file: convert kml to mbtiles
Open QGIS. Create a new project. Set the project CRS (Coordinate Reference System) to . This is non-negotiable; MBTiles only works in 3857. tippecanoe -o my_data
# Example on macOS using Homebrew brew install gdal brew install tippecanoe Use code with caution. Step 2: Convert KML to GeoJSON (via ogr2ogr) ogr2ogr -f "GeoJSON" output.json input.kml Use code with caution. Step 3: Convert GeoJSON to MBTiles (via Tippecanoe) Create a new project
: Open QGIS and add your KML file using Layer → Add Layer → Add Vector Layer or simply drag the KML file into the map canvas. Make sure the layer is visible and styled as you wish it to appear in the final tiles.
