Adding Custom Tile Server (mbtiles Server) as Overlay? {x}/{y}/{z} => {0}/{1}/{2}

[Derek Hildreth]

All,

I have a custom tile server (using mbtiles-server) I'd like to use as an overlay and I'm struggling to get the format correct.  It appears that OsmAnd expects {0}/{1}/{2}.  I'm not sure how 0, 1, and 2 equate to x (col), y (row), and z (zoom).  I feel like I'm close because I do see the tiles appearing, but they are large tiles missing in between other tiles (whitespace/margins around a tile).

Then, I read on the wiki page here that:

OsmAnd does not use the OpenStreetMap standard tile layer (also known as openstreetmap-carto) to generate its maps, so bugs related to maps rendered for OsmAnd do not belong there. OsmAnd uses its own tile render generation routines, generally defined in the OsmAnd-resources GitHub project.

 Does that mean my attempts were doomed from the start? :-)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you.

I don't think so!  If you're serving tiles in a format like:

https://servername/directory/0/1/2.png

then you should be able to set it up.

I have a server https://map.atownsend.org.uk/ that serves tiles in the usual OSM format, so https://map.atownsend.org.uk/hot/9/253/166.png is a valid tile.  I've defined that in Osmand via "Map Source / Define/Edit" as:

• Name    AJT
• URL    https://map.atownsend.org.uk/hot/{0}/{1}/{2}.png
• Min zoom    0
• Max zoom    24
• Expire    (left blank)
• Elliptic Mercator    (unticked)

Best Regards,

Andy

Thanks for the help!  I must've had a strange caching issue because I was able to re-add it with a new map name and everything works now!

I used your url to verify things were working okay, which gave me a great testing baseline. Thanks again for your help!
