Detailed Description

Handles conversion of vector features to Mapbox vector tiles encoding.

Geometries are stored as a series of MoveTo / LineTo / ClosePath commands with coordinates in integer values (see resolution(), called "extent" in the spec). Attributes are stored as key-value pairs of tags: keys are always strings, values can be integers, floating point numbers, booleans or strings.

See the specification for details: https://github.com/mapbox/vector-tile-spec/blob/master/2.1/README.md
