Tile Matrix Sets

specstableimplmature

Provides definitions of the Tile Matrix Sets used in the API.

Scope

This building block provides information about the tiling schemes supported by the API.

The following preconfigured tiling schemes are available:

• WebMercatorQuad
• WorldCRS84Quad
• WorldMercatorWGS84Quad
• AdV_25832 (AdV tiling scheme using ETRS89/UTM32N covering Germany)
• AdV_25833 (AdV tiling scheme using ETRS89/UTM33N covering Germany)
• EU_25832 (Tiling scheme using ETRS89/UTM32N covering Europe)
• gdi_de_25832 (GDI-DE tiling scheme using ETRS89/UTM32N covering Germany)

Conformance Classes

This building block implements the conformance classes "TileMatrixSet", and "JSONTileMatrixSet" of the OGC Two Dimensional Tile Matrix Set and Tile Set Metadata 2.0 Standard.

Operations

Resource	Path	Methods	Media Types	Description
Tile Matrix Sets	tileMatrixSets	GET	HTML, JSON	Returns the list of tiling schemes.
Tile Matrix Set	tileMatrixSets/{tileMatrixSetId}	GET	HTML, JSON	Returns the definition of a tiling scheme.

Path Parameters

Name	Resources	Description
tileMatrixSetId	Tile Matrix Set	The identifier of the tiling scheme.

Query Parameters

Name	Resources	Description
f	TileMatrixSets, TileMatrixSet	Select the output format of the response. If no value is provided, the standard HTTP rules apply, i.e., the "Accept" header will be used to determine the format.

Configuration

Custom Tiling Schemes

Additional tiling schemes can be configured as JSON files according to the OGC Two Dimensional Tile Matrix Set and Tile Set Metadata 2.0 Standard in the data directory at api-resources/tile-matrix-sets/{tileMatrixSetId}.json.

Options

Name	Default	Description	Type	Since
buildingBlock		Always TILE_MATRIX_SETS.	string	v3.1
enabled	false	Enable the building block?	boolean	v3.1
caching	{}	Sets fixed values for HTTP Caching Headers for the resources.	object	v3.1
includePredefined	[ "WebMercatorQuad" ]	The list of pre-defined tile matrix sets that are published via this API.	array	v3.1

Examples

The JSON representation of the pre-defined tiling schemes are available on GitHub.

A configuration for an API that provides tiles in three tiling schemas could be the following:

- buildingBlock: TILE_MATRIX_SETS
  enabled: true
  includePredefined:
  - WebMercatorQuad
  - WorldCRS84Quad
  - WorldMercatorWGS84Quad
