The latest tippecanoe 2.51.0 cannot produce vector tiles well

Closed this issue · 4 comments

I am not sure this is a bug, but the latest tippecanoe does not produce tiles well.

In my local tippecanoe 2.24.0, the following command can work well.

The below is PMTiles produced by 2.24.0

But, in the latest 2.51.0, it shows a message like 60043 features, 3355810 bytes of geometry and attributes, 666045 bytes of string pool, 0 bytes of vertices, 0 bytes of nodes while there is no 0 bytes of vertices, 0 bytes of nodes log in v2.24.0.

The below is PMTiles produced by 2.51.0. As you can see, most of features such as pipeline, sewerline are not in tiles.

I think my tippecanoe command might have problems, but I am struggling to find a solution to fix this. I am not sure this problem is there since which version. Do you have any idea to fix the problem?

I attach geojson files here to reproduce.

Thanks for the report! This is a very strange and unexpected regression. I'll look into it and figure out what has gone wrong.

Thanks again. The bug appears to have been introduced in version 2.43.0. I'll take a look at that PR and figure out what I did wrong.

This will be fixed in #221

Thanks! Merged and tagged as 2.52.0.
