Vespucci 16.0 Beta

Posted by SimonPoole on 23 August 2021 in English.

Today we’ve started rolling out the 1st beta release of 16.0. If you intend to install this, or at a later date the release version, please read the release notes http://vespucci.io/help/en/16.0.0%20Release%20notes/ before installing.

Due to the preparation for targeting Android 11 there have been some changes in where files are stored that you need to know about.

I’ll be testing the MVT support out when I find time. I’m still new to this so any links to worked examples / tips much appreciated. For example, for MVT in JOSM I leaned that I needed to point the custom URL to a style.json file. Is it the same principle in Vespucci?

(Sorry if that’s a really novice question - I play around until I get stuff to work rather than understanding what to do!)

Originally I envisioned most of the VT config coming from ELI or the JOSM imagery configuration, however that is not happening (yet). As a result the configuration is a bit roundabout: configure the tile URL as a custom layer then load the style in to that layer via the layer “hamburger” menu.

I’ll probably add configuration of the tile URL from the “sources” section in the style for release, which will take one step out of the above procedure. Your post code data layer and style works just fine in any case within the constraints of what is supported: http://vespucci.io/tutorials/mapbox-style/
