- Teams serving live PostGIS data on maps
- Worth noticing
- Live mode requires a direct database connection; scheduled snapshots support pooled or read-only setups.
Field notes
The setup flow checks the database connection, PostGIS version, permissions, and whether a pooler can support live updates. Users select geometry columns, properties, and zoom ranges before receiving a TileJSON URL and origin-restricted key. For tables that cannot accept triggers, the page describes scheduled snapshots as an alternative.
