XYZ Tile API
v1
English
XYZ Tile API XYZ Tiles, also known as slippy map tiles, is a method of expressing map tile mosaics, indexed by (x,y) offsets and zoom levels (z). Unlike WMTS, there is no formal Get Capabilities request to obtain meta data about a tile service, however we have an Imagery API endpoint that will return available layers with bounding box in JSON format Most applications have in-built knowledge of the mosaic and how to access the correct tile to fulfil a view (For example, QGIS). XYZ Tiles uses a REST interface where a request for a tile includes the desired map layer, x, y and z values as part of the URL. URLs are typically of the format. You must replace the parameters shown in shown in [square brackets] TMS vs XYZ The different between XYZ and TMS is that the y-axis is flipped. XYZ can therefore convert
