Research direction

Start by inventorying the vector tile and mbtiles writing code, jsonpull, and the sorting/merging code, then compare each with its Tippecanoe counterpart. Determine whether the projects should merge or whether the shared code can become a dependency; done means one agreed reconciliation path is implemented.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

  • The vector tile and mbtiles writing code is copied from Tippecanoe
  • jsonpull is copied from Tippecanoe
  • The sorting/merging code is derived from Tippecanoe's index sorting, but modified

Either the two projects should ultimately be merged or the shared code should be pulled out into a dependency.
