If you aren't sure what the right maxzoom is for your data, \fB\fC\-zg\fR will guess one for you
based on the density of features.
.PP
If you are mapping point features, you will often want to use \fB\fC\-Bg\fR to automatically choose
a base zoom level for dot dropping. If that doesn't work out for you, try
\fB\fC\-r1 \-\-drop\-fraction\-as\-needed\fR to turn off the normal dot dropping and instead
only drop features if the tiles get too big.
Tippecanoe will normally drop a fraction of point features at zooms below the maxzoom,
to keep the low\-zoom tiles from getting too big. If you have a smaller data set where
all the points would fit without dropping any of them, use \fB\fC\-r1\fR to keep them all.
If you do want point dropping, but you still want the tiles to be denser than \fB\fC\-zg\fR
thinks they should be, use \fB\fC\-B\fR to set a basezoom lower than the maxzoom.
.PP
If you are mapping points or polygons, you will often want to use \fB\fC\-\-drop\-densest\-as\-needed\fR
to drop some of them if necessary to make the low zoom levels work.
If some of your tiles are coming out too big in spite of the settings above, you will
often want to use \fB\fC\-\-drop\-densest\-as\-needed\fR to drop whatever fraction of the features
is necessary at each zoom level to make that zoom level's tiles work.
.PP
If your features have a lot of attributes, use \fB\fC\-y\fR to keep only the ones you really need.
