Getting Started with Tiles

Basic steps for working with tiled base map services for offline.

Step 1: Fill in the basics

Add the basic library references. Then test to make sure map loads.

Step 2: Configure tiled basemap to work offline

This initializes the offline-editor-js library. Test to make sure map loads.

Step 3: Configure tiles download.

Enable the ability to download tiles as well the ability to toggle online and offline.
