A wavefront obj vector tile builder and exporter based on mapzen vector tiles.
- build and export mesh in obj files based on tile coordinates (find your tiles of interest here)
export example
fetch submodules
First initialize submodules by running:
$ git submodule update --init --recursiveinstall dependencies (OS X)
$ brew install cmakeinstall dependencies (Linux)
To build vectiler you will need a compiler that supports c++11, for example with g++-4.9 on an ubuntu machine:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install g++-4.9 cmake libcurl4-openssl-dev
build (OS X/Linux)
To build with cmake in a build/ directory run the following:
$ cmake . -Bbuild
$ cmake --build buildbuild (Windows)
First install CMake for Windows and then run the following commands in a command line tool like MinGW:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64"
$ cmake --build .usage
Usage: ./vectiler.out [options]
