About:
Martin is a high-performance tile server that generates map tiles on-the-fly from PostgreSQL or MBTiles databases. It provides a PostGIS-native alternative to traditional tile servers, offering blazing fast speeds with minimal configuration. The tool also includes utilities for creating and managing MBTiles archives.
Key Features:
  • On-the-fly tile generation from PostGIS
  • Native MBTiles file support
  • Minimal configuration required
  • High performance with low resource usage
  • PostgreSQL connection pooling
Use Cases:
  • Serving dynamic map tiles for web applications
  • Generating MBTiles archives for offline use
  • Creating tile caches for high-traffic map services
  • Rapid prototyping of GIS applications
Alternatives:
  • TileServer GL – More complex setup, requires pre-generated tiles
  • pg_tileserv – Similar PostGIS focus but Martin offers better performance and MBTiles support
