Features

• Mapnik configuration in TypeScript (JSX, using JsxNik) adding all benefits of typed scripting (preventing repetition, programatic style generation, type validation, code assist, …)
• Map tile serving using Freemap Mapserver
  • Rendering (export) to PDF/SVG/JPG/PNG
  • Support of tiles for HiDPI / Retina devices
  • Configurable map pre-rendering
  • On-demand tile rendering (if requested tile is not rendered yet)
