# TileCloud-chain
The goal of TileCloud Chain is to provide tools around tile generation on a chain like:
Source: WMS, Mapnik.
Optionally using an SQS queue, AWS host, SNS topic.
Destination in WMTS layout, on S3, on Berkeley DB (`bsddb`), on MBTiles, or on local filesystem.
Features:
- Generate tiles.
- Drop empty tiles.
- Drop tiles outside a geometry or a bbox.
- Use MetaTiles.
- Generate the legend images.
- Generate GetCapabilities.
- Generate OpenLayers example page.
- Obtain the hash of an empty tile.
- In the future, measure tile generation speed.
- Calculate cost and generation time.
- In the future, manage the AWS hosts that generate tiles.
- Delete empty tiles.
- Copy files between caches.
- Be able to use an SQS queue to dispatch the generation.
- Post processing the generated tiles.
- ...
Legacy features:
- bsddb support
- sqlite (mbtiles) support
- mapnik support (should be updated for Python3)
