# Google Maps alternatives

Talk and code examples about alternatives to Google Maps.

* [Slides](https://github.com/friedjoff/google-maps-alternatives/raw/master/slides.pdf)

## Requirements

* [GDAL](https://www.gdal.org/)

* [tippecanoe](https://github.com/mapbox/tippecanoe)

* [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/)

## Getting started

* `yarn run georeferencing` to assign coordinates to citymap.jpg image.

* `yarn run reprojecting` to transform the image to Web Mercator projection.

* `yarn run tiling` to create raster tiles based on the georeferenced image.

* `yarn run generate-vector-tiles` to create vector tiles based on the GeoJSON file.

* Run `yarn install` and `yarn run serve-vector-tiles` to start a local vector tile server.

* Have a look at the code examples 1 to 6.
