Spectrum Spatial provides an OGC-compliant Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) built to the OGC specifications for WMTS versions 1.0.0 (located at http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wmts).
The WMTS Tile Generator is a command-line utility, named tile_builder.bat on Windows and tile_builder.sh on Linux, that executes batch runs to generate map tiles for the WMTS service and optionally seed the WMTS tile cache. The WMTS Tile Generator is available as a download from the Spectrum Spatial section of the Spectrum Technology Platform Welcome Page, under WMTS Tile Generator on the Utilities tab.
Running the WMTS Tile Generator (tile_builder.bat) with no parameters or with the -help parameter displays details about its parameters.
For information about Spectrum Spatial support for WMTS, see Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) in the Services section.
- The WMTS Tile Generator requires the JAVA_HOME variable set to the location of the installed JDK (Java 11 is required).
- The WMTS Tile Generator uses Basic authentication. For more information, see Web Service Authentication.
