Valhalla Tilepacks

Why Valhalla Tilepacks?

Valhalla is fully open-source and available for anyone to operate. In our experience helping a wide range of organizations operate Valhalla, we've found that it's simple for everyone to run Valhalla instances for routing requests — but it's difficult to run the pipeline that generates Valhalla's internal tile datasets. That's why Interline provides Valhalla Tilepacks for instant download.

Interline runs a pipeline that every day combines together 40Gb of OpenStreetMap data with 1.6Tb of elevation to produce Valhalla tiles for the entire planet. You can download the entire planet or regional extracts of tiles to power your own Valhalla instances. No need to run or tune the pipeline. Update frequency is up to you: You can download once a day, weekly, monthly, or quarterly.

Note Valhalla Tilepacks are generated in the v3 tile format, for us by Valhalla 3.0.0 and up.
