Expand description
EarthWyrm is a Rust library for displaying vector tile maps in a browser context, using WASM.
Geographic maps are retrieved as tiles for fluid web browser interactivity.
Each .wyrm tile is a snippet, or fragment of SVG which can be inserted
into a web page’s DOM with no modification.
Example tile: 14/3944/5895.wyrm
<g class="wyrm-county">
<path class="osm-1795848"
data-name="Hennepin County"
d="m-8 -8h272v272h-272v-272z" />
</g>
<g class="wyrm-city">
<path class="osm-136712"
data-name="Minneapolis"
d="m129 264v-109l1 -102l118 -1v-59l16 -1v272h-136z" />
<path class="osm-136699"
data-name="Golden Valley"
d="m-8 -8l256 1v59l-118 1l-1 102v73h-34l-39 -1h-64v-235z" />
<path class="osm-136701"
data-name="Saint Louis Park"
d="m-8 227h64l39 1h34v36h-137v-155z" />
</g>Tiles are named using a ZXY naming scheme, with a wyrm file extension
(e.g. https://example.com/wyrm/12/990/1450.wyrm).
Tiles are square, scaled to 256x256 units, cropped at a margin of 8 around each edge. Path coordinates are rounded to the nearest integer.
Layers are styled with standard CSS.
