[MapServer-dev] MVT and WMS STYLES and FILTERS

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Will there be any way to prevent filtering if someone wants to cache the MVT tiles with MapCache, for example? Should the admin write an unfiltered STYLE for that purpose? Geoserver seems to consider that one tile for all the styles is an advantage https://docs.geoserver.org/main/en/user/extensions/vectortiles/tutorial.html but I have not tested how Geoserver really behaves.
Is the aim of filtering to minimize the size of the vector tiles?

Hi,

It seems reasonable to me that STYLE and FILTER are taken into account by the MVT output to WMS (principle of least surprise). MVT is just an alternate output format (the fact that you can style it on client side is orthogonal IMHO)
