Encoders

VTS allows to covert external hierarchical mesh formats into VTS tilesets. These include so far ESRI SLPK (.spk) format, Bentley Context capture LODTree and Leica Citymapper DAE export (accepted by lodtree2vts) and VEF open transport format proposed by Melown.

There are also two special encoders to concert from VTS tilesets and VEF.

External format to VTS encoders

vef2vts, slpk2vts, lodtree2vts

The most important options are common to all convertors to VTS.

input
Path to input file/directory. All convertors can input as directory, zip archive or plain tar archive.
output
Path to output VTS tileset.
tilesetId
Output tilesetId.
referenceFrame
Output tileset’s reference frame.
zShift
Manual heigh adjustment of the output. Usefull for minor fixes of georeferencing.
overwrite
Overwrites output tileset if present.

vef2slpk

vts2vts

Converts VTS tilesets between reference frames. If original data are available in some non-VTS format, it is always better to create tileset in desired reference frame by encoding it directly from the original data. The use of vts2vts is advisible only if the original data is not available.
