Localtileserver
dynamic tile server for visualizing rasters in Jupyter with ipyleaflet or folium
Overview
The tile-diagram is a local tile server designed for visualizing large geospatial raster files, particularly those of gigabytes or larger. It serves tiles from these raster files in the Slippy Maps standard for visualization in tools like Jupyter with ipyleaflet or folium. Built on rio-tiler, this tool offers the capability to launch a tile server for large geospatial images, view local or remote raster files, and even visualize rasters in CesiumJS using the built-in web application.
Features
- Serve tiles from large raster files
- Visualize raster files in Jupyter using ipyleaflet or folium
- View rasters with CesiumJS using the built-in web application
- Efficiently deliver varying resolutions of raster imagery
- Support for Cloud Optimized GeoTiffs for remote raster files
