This repo is a PoC that you can display protomaps basetiles with protomaps leaflet (a full canvas renderer) even on a 10 year old leaflet version (leaflet 0.8-dev).
Two things here are patched:
- leaflet, as protomaps uses some utility functions for e.g. loading close tiles first
- protomaps, i.e.
renderTileandrerenderTilefunctions
It does work, really well and fast! I couldn't see any bugs or similar.
On old Leaflet versions before 1.0, I only found two ways for using vector tiles:
- SpatialServer/Leaflet.MapboxVectorTile#89
- This repo with protomaps.
The latter works better and without bugs on the tile edges! So you have the freedom to draw whatever you want and use amazing pmtiles.
