* Add an option to generate label points in place of polygons
* Change all these places where I said "extent" but really meant "area"
* Revert "Change all these places where I said "extent" but really meant "area""
This reverts commit 403828d2f7.
* Add --order-smallest-first and --order-largest-first options
* Use Turf's center-of-mass algorithm for polygon label points
* If the label point isn't within the polygon, find one that is
* Don't choose a label point that is too close to a border
* Try a little harder to find an optimal label point
* Checkerboard which tiles labels are generated in, to reduce adjacency
* Use a label point for the general representative point for polygons
(Skipping the iteration to find one that is as far as possible from
the borders)
This makes the labels look better in many cases (like France at z1)
but unfortunately ripples into changing the sequence of polygons in
many tests, so the diff is big.
* Revert "Use a label point for the general representative point for polygons"
This reverts commit 2261adf05e.
* Checkpoint work on spiral labels
* Clip label spirals to the feature bounds
* Fix label test
* Be careful not to place spiral labels too close to borders either
* For spiral anchors, only check tile scale, not feature size
* Update test
* Only try to find a central label point for the largest ring
* In tiny polygon dust, keep the attributes of the largest feature
* Stop adding features to a tile if it can't possibly work
* Add --integer and --fraction options to tippecanoe-decode
* Carry the strategies field from tileset metadata through tile-join
* Update changelog
* Assign different codes to different kinds of error exits
* Add an option to retain extra coordinate precision at maxzoom
* Make sure not to shift away the extra detail from coordinates
* Add an option to convert double-precision attributes to single
* Sort attribute values in tiles to make them compress a little better
* Slightly improve polygon simplification
By choosing a point that would be retained after simplification
to be the start/end point that always gets retained
* I regret making all of these tests involve polygons
* Add an option to specify the size of tiny polygons
* Fix accidental requiring of argument for --single-precision
* Guard against duplicate points when generating "sizes" for them
* Restore the intended behavior that tiny polygons don't get simplified
* Make the extra detail settable rather than always maximizing it
* Revert "Improve maxzoom guessing for tightly-clustered point data sources (#4)"
This reverts commit fec5e8354c.
* Add an option to prevent choosing a base zoom higher than the maxzoom
* Keep the drop rate high enough when the basezoom gets constrained
* Revert "Revert "Improve maxzoom guessing for tightly-clustered point data sources (#4)""
This reverts commit db6bc27d9e.
* Add --order-by and --order-descending options
* Accept multiple --order-by and --order-descending-by sort keys
* Handle points too when dropping or coalescing the "smallest" features.
* Add statistics of tile size reduction strategies to tileset metadata
* Update changelog and version
* Update documentation
Now the count is always adjacent to whereever the key/value pair is
stored, and is not kept in the serial feature object other than as
the length of the vectors of keys and values.
This moves filtering from the serialization stage to the
tiling stage so that the zoom level can be known to the filter.
The side effect is to carry null attributes much further through
the pipeline than previously.
Fortunately most attributes are in the string pool, but ones that
have passed through the prefilter are not. (Nor are attributes that
are generated by clustering or by attribute accumulation.)
The first feature in a tile can never be dropped, since there is
no previous feature to attach its properties to.
Remove the previous special case that reset the dropping counter
at the first feature within each tile proper (as opposed to the
first feature in each tile, including its buffer, which is now
the one that is guaranteed to be preserved).
This also allows doing the attribute and tilestats all at once
at the end of the tile instead of having to update a feature
to handle the last cluster.
