# Vector tiles overview

OS Open Greenspace is provided in MBTiles, which is an open specification tileset format used for vector tiles. The format is designed to be simple, high resolution, customisable and efficient to load as a single file. The data is supplied in Web Mercator projection (ESPG:3857).

## Vector tiles schema <a href="#bookmark26" id="bookmark26"></a>

The vector tiles schema, as well as the zoom level for each attribute, is detailed in the following table:

{% hint style="info" %}
*In the Zoom levels columns, 'N' (no) indicates that the specified layer and attribute does not display within that zoom level, whereas 'Y' (yes) indicates that the specified layer and attribute does display within that zoom level*.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/os-downloads/products/land-and-terrain-portfolio/os-open-greenspace/os-open-greenspace-technical-specification/vector-tiles-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
