# mbtilesToPngs

This python program takes __rasterised__ .mbtiles files and extracts the images and places them into the correct directory structure `/${z}/${x}/${y}.png` that mimicks OpenStreetMap URI tile structure. This is to allow for offline use of OpenStreetMaps, and I will be using [Flutter_Map](https://github.com/apptreesoftware/flutter_map) along with my own images for offline maps.

## What is .mbtiles?

In short, .mbtiles is a SQLite database file, with tile data stored as binary objects [(BLOBS)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_large_object) in the database. There are two main formats these BLOBS can be for .mbtiles:

1. PBF for vectored tiles (think mathematical points, lines, polygons)
2. PNG for rasterised tiles (images).

This script only extracts the data from within the .mbtiles (it does not convert the data). This script only works for **Rasterised** .mbtiles that are already in .PNG format.

## Where to get .mbtiles?

OpenStreetMap says:
> Apart from very limited testing purposes, you should not use the tiles supplied by OpenStreetMap.org itself. OpenStreetMap is a volunteer-run non-profit body and cannot supply tiles for large-scale commercial use. Rather, you should use a third party provider that makes tiles from OSM data, or generate your own.

As far as I see, OpenStreetMap only offers MBTiles in [PBF format](https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/osmpbf/osmpbf.htm) which is a vectored based format. This script will not work with this format.

There are various ways to download .mbtiles in PNG format, below is a OSX method:

[A Guide to generate your own](https://tilemill-project.github.io/tilemill/docs/guides/osm-bright-mac-quickstart/)

This guide will go through the steps for compiling map data, downloading a specific area, customise the map, then export to mbtile. Warning! For Mac, when you install TileMill.app, it currently fails to start. Go into *TileMill* > *Updates Preference* > *check Install Developer Builds*.

## How to use

Make sure you have python3 install. 
```bash
python3 mbtilesToPngs.py -i path/to/.mbtiles
```

For example: 
> python3 sqliteReader.py -i ./OSMBright.mbtiles

## My map says file not found! Why are the filenames incorrect?

[And here](https://alastaira.wordpress.com/2011/07/06/converting-tms-tile-coordinates-to-googlebingosm-tile-coordinates/) 
I've added option to convert TMS Tile Coordinates to Google/Bing/OSM Tile Coordinates. Just use `-tms` when running.
