mapbox/tilelive-omnivore

What output format?

For most of the data that mapnik-omnivore digests, we'll be generating vector tiles, and hence the map format in mapnik XML should be pbf. What about rasters? Currently this lib hardcodes to webp but is that the right choice?

👍 this should work given that it's integrating with tilelive-bridge which makes hard assumptions about pbf/webp as its only output formats. These two modules will need to coordinate closely in the future if there are ever changes.

Okay then: sticking to webp until any problems arise.
