Hi, is it possible to get a leaflet example map, perhaps using the US zip data you mention as an example of how well geobuf performs, and to show how it is implemented?

Thanks,

Conor.

It does not need a Leaflet example.

Hi @mourner, Im trying to not use GeoJosn, as I need to load around 50k points. Im researching all over stackoverflow and other websites how to implement geobuf from Postgresql + PostGis to send the data, and Leaflet to load the data. and use something that will compress size better. But without some examples, I just cannot do the install, so I will either not use this, will try other libraries, or if everything fails, I will consider that the technology is not yet there.

Sean, the person that written the RFC for GeoJson recommended Geobuf as one of the alternatives.
But without examples a lot of folks that are not experimented programers will just not be able to use some of the libraries.
The only real article that I find related with Geobuf and Leaflet was this https://samc1213.github.io/2019/04/29/rideshare-dataset-getting-started/

Whats the point of having ST_AsGeobuf in PostGIS if there is not a single blog articles or tutorial on the internet showcasting what you can do with it?
