Incomplete vector tiles

It seems that some tiles in Berlin (but maybe also elsewhere) are
incomplete. This is best seen if some filter is in effect. Some
examples:

  • Mapillary
    Here clearly tracks are cropped to the North, but the photos are
    still available at Mapillary — just follow one of the cropped
    tracks.
  • Mapillary
    Now zoom in, which results in a URL like the following one:
    Mapillary
    → Most of the tracks vanished, some are clearly cropped.

Can these tiles be regenerated?

@abalys - is this something we can do?

Thanks for reporting - looking into it.

Hi,

Number of features on a tile is capped at 200k because of the current design. If it’s over that, we prioritize serving newer sequences and their objects.

What this means is that if you have two tiles side by side, continuity on older sequences may break, depending on the density.

The data in the backend is still available, so if you use an api with appropriate filtering you can still retrieve it and partial sequences are still clickable through.

We’re looking into how to solve this long term.

Thanks for understanding and let me know if there’s anything else.

Kind regards,
Balys

In short term, would it be possible to work around it by creating two buckets of 100k for 360° and non-360° imagery?
