MAPTILER RASTER SOFTWARE
(* VTScada can use 3rd party software to generate map tiles that contain layers of map and GIS data. If you have a MapTiler account, you can download your choice of map tiles to create a static image set on your server, or you can use their online service if you are interested in a map style that includes vector or image data, including GIS information(*). One of the sources used by VTScada is MapTiler™. Instructions are provided in Change the Map Source. Any online map source that uses OpenStreetMap can be used for your map tiles.
