    Vector Tile Test: PBF

    This map uses the Leaflet.VectorGrid plugin for Leaflet 1.0 with the Canvas Renderer (L.canvas.tile).
    The vector tiles are stored on Mapbox. Intead of calling a Mapbox style, the pbf files are accessed directly. This map demonstrates the capability of Leaflet to render thousands of polygons using Vector Tiles on both desktop and mobile devices. Rendering, search and identify are handled by the browser, so there is no need for GeoServer/ArcGIS Server, etc., to push data to the client. The original shapefile was converted to geoJSON using esri2open, then to mbtiles using tippecanoe. The tiles are served via mbtiles-server, and rendered using Leaflet 1.0 and Leaflet Vector Grid.
