Tippecanoe also accepts expressions of the form \fB\fC[ "attribute\-filter", name, expression ]\fR, to filter individual feature attributes
instead of entire features. For example, you can exclude the road names at low zoom levels by doing
.PP
.RS
.nf
tippecanoe \-o roads.mbtiles \-j '{ "*": [ "attribute\-filter", "FULLNAME", [ ">=", "$zoom", 9 ] ] }' tl_2015_06001_roads.json

An \fB\fCattribute\-filter\fR expression itself is always considered to evaluate to \fB\fCtrue\fR (in other words, to retain the feature instead
of dropping it). If you want to use multiple \fB\fCattribute\-filter\fR expressions, or to use other expressions to remove features from
the same layer, enclose them in an \fB\fCall\fR expression so they will all be evaluated.
