# GBIF Maps

GBIF Occurrence Maps in [Mapbox Vector Tile](https://www.mapbox.com/vector-tiles/specification/) (MVT) format and as PNGs.

 - Processing from HBase or Parquet files into the tile pyramid, stored in HBase

 - Rendering in Mapbox vector tile (MVT) format from HBase or SOLR data sources

 - Mapnik as an optional view to convert MVTs into PNGs

 - Hexagon binning views

 - Fast disaster recovery and batch processing

 - Year resolution time series data

 

The general architecture:

## Debugging interfaces

There are debug/demo interfaces:

* [Vector tiles](https://api.gbif.org/v2/map/debug/ol/)

* [Vector tiles (Web Mercator only)](https://api.gbif.org/v2/map/debug/)

* [Raster tiles](https://api.gbif.org/v2/map/demo.html)

## The result
