to load a PMTiles file. The rest of the URL continue with be https://
to load a remote PMTiles file, asset://
to load an asset or file://
to load a local PMTiles file.
Oliver Wipfli has made a style available that combines a Protomaps basemap together with Foursquare POI dataset. It is available in the wipfli/foursquare-os-places-pmtiles repository on GitHub. The style to use is
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wipfli/foursquare-os-places-pmtiles/refs/heads/main/style.json
The neat thing about this style is that it only uses PMTiles vector sources. PMTiles can be hosted with a relatively simple file server (or file hosting service) instead of a more complex specialized tile server.
