Mapbox-gl-js: Does cluster support vector tiles?

[Roxyi]

Hi,

I found this example about cluster: Create and style clusters

I tried to add vector tiles source but it did not work. I wonder if the cluster supports vector tiles or if I wanna cluster points data from vector tiles, is there a way to do so?

Thanks

No, clustering requires special processing that is only possibly with GeoJSON sources at this time.

Any plan to push this special processing at work ? Thanks

[matthieugayon]

what about that ? https://github.com/mapbox/vt2geojson

Are there any plans to implement this? Even if the clustering math is limited on a per-tile basis

Two years, any updates on this feature or are we still limited to used geoJson sources at this time

nooo I'm bummed, just refactored the whole site using mapbox tiles instead of loading our big GeoJSON on client level all the time.... clustering should work with vector-tiles too

"You can cluster data to put into a vector tile source using Tippecanoe, but can not create a cluster from a vector tile source on the fly without some custom code." We ended up using Tippecanoe to add clusters to vector tiles.

Great thanks to @ ryanbaumann
