Mapbox Vector Tile Server - Go

gräva - prototype MVT server for PostGIS

This project is a Go server for generating mapbox vector tiles from Postgres/PostGIS database. It started as an experimentation to learn about the mapbox vector tile format.

The server is very alpha, but is usable - more work is needed (especially around testing which I have woefully neglected).

Sample screen below is from the Open Map Local sample:
