Cartego is a library for downloading tiles from popular maps services. Cartego is loosely based on cartegan, but cartego does offer some distinct differences:
- cartego provides a server (and protocol) for hosting map tiles
- cartego is written in Go
- easy to embed in Go applications
- users only need a binary to run stand-alone
- cartego is a library (easy to embed) and a protocol built on HTTP
The bundled cartego command can act as either a server or a cli downloader.
To compile (if it's in your GOPATH):
go install cartego/cartego
