gräva - prototype MVT server for PostGIS
This project is a Go server for generating mapbox vector tiles from Postgres/PostGIS database. It started as an experimentation to learn about
the mapbox vector tile format.
The server is very alpha, but is usable - more work is needed (especially around testing which I have woefully neglected).

Building
The following are required for building:
| Tool | Version | Download |
|---|---|---|
