What do I need to upload a tiff to MapBox?
There are a couple requirements for TIFFs: Only 8-bit GeoTIFFs are supported. Run gdalinfo to find your GeoTIFF’s resolution. Mapbox only accepts TIFFs with georeferencing information (GeoTIFFs). Make sure your TIFF is georeferenced before trying to upload.
How can I edit a dataset in Mapbox?
Datasets provide access to feature geometries (points, lines, and polygons) and properties (attributes), both of which can be edited in the Mapbox Studio dataset editor or through the Mapbox Datasets API.
What’s the maximum size of a tile in Mapbox?
Tile exceeds maximum size of 500k at z { zoom level }. Reduce the detail of data at this zoom level or omit it by adjusting your minzoom. The size of a specific tile in the MBTiles file is too large. Reduce the detail of data at this zoom level or omit it by adjusting your minzoom.
How big of a dataset can I upload to MapBox?
An extra note on dataset uploads: Multiple files can be uploaded to the same dataset without limit — they need to be loaded 5 MB at a time in the Mapbox Studio dataset editor. The size of a dataset is unlimited, but the Mapbox Studio dataset editor can only display datasets of 20 MB or smaller.
How big of a file can I upload to MapBox?
Uploads created in Mapbox Studio via the Mapbox Studio style editor, your tilesets page, or exported from a dataset using the dataset editor are subject to additional limits. These uploads cannot exceed 300 MB, and are limited to 20 uploads per month. Some file types have limits below 300 MB. See the chart below for limits by file type.
Why did my upload fail in Mapbox Studio?
Upload failures directly in Mapbox Studio typically occur for two reasons: There’s an explicit issue with your data. The data didn’t process within one hour (two hours for MBTiles files). If there is an explicit issue with your data, you will receive a descriptive error message when the upload fails.
How can I upload tileset to Mapbox Studio?
Make sure to split up your layers into different files before uploading to Mapbox Studio. If you must use KML and require all the layers, use kml-split, which breaks a KML into multiple files with fewer layers. Otherwise you can merge your layers into one and upload as either GeoJSON or a Shapefile. Tileset exceeds processing limit.
How do I add data to a Mapbox dataset?
To add your data to a dataset, you can create a new, blank dataset through Mapbox Studio or through the Mapbox Datasets API and then add data to it. Note that the Mapbox Datasets API does not date GeoJSON files as uploads, but rather as the body of a POST request. See the Mapbox Datasets API documentation for more information.
