Vector tile search API
editVector tile search API
editSearches a vector tile for geospatial values. Returns results as a binary Mapbox vector tile.
GET my-index/_mvt/my-geo-field/15/5271/12710
Prerequisites
edit- Before using this API, you should be familiar with the Mapbox vector tile specification.
-
If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the
read
index privilege for the target data stream, index, or alias. For cross-cluster search, see Configure remote clusters with security.
Path parameters
edit-
<target>
-
(Required, string) Comma-separated list of data streams, indices, or aliases to search. Supports wildcards (
*
). To search all data streams and indices, omit this parameter or use*
or_all
.To search a remote cluster, use the
<cluster>:<target>
syntax. See Search across clusters. -
<field>
-
(Required, string) Field containing geospatial values to return. Must be a
geo_point
orgeo_shape
field. The field must have doc values enabled. Cannot be a nested field.Vector tiles do not natively support geometry collections. For
geometrycollection
values in ageo_shape
field, the API returns ahits
layer feature for each element of the collection. This behavior may change in a future release. -
<zoom>
-
(Required, integer) Zoom level for the vector tile to search. Accepts
0
-29
. -
<x>
- (Required, integer) X coordinate for the vector tile to search.
-
<y>
- (Required, integer) Y coordinate for the vector tile to search.
Description
editInternally, Elasticsearch translates a vector tile search API request into a search containing:
-
A
geo_bounding_box
query on the<field>
. The query uses the<zoom>/<x>/<y>
tile as a bounding box. -
A
geotile_grid
orgeohex_grid
aggregation on the<field>
. Thegrid_agg
parameter determines the aggregation type. The aggregation uses the<zoom>/<x>/<y>
tile as a bounding box. -
Optionally, a
geo_bounds
aggregation on the<field>
. The search only includes this aggregation if theexact_bounds
parameter istrue
. -
If the optional parameter
with_labels
is true, the internal search will include a dynamic runtime field that calls thegetLabelPosition
function of the geometry doc value. This enables the generation of new point features containing suggested geometry labels, so that, for example, multi-polygons will have only one label.
For example, Elasticsearch may translate a vector tile search API request with a
grid_agg
argument of geotile
and an exact_bounds
argument of true
into the following search:
GET my-index/_search { "size": 10000, "query": { "geo_bounding_box": { "my-geo-field": { "top_left": { "lat": -40.979898069620134, "lon": -45 }, "bottom_right": { "lat": -66.51326044311186, "lon": 0 } } } }, "aggregations": { "grid": { "geotile_grid": { "field": "my-geo-field", "precision": 11, "size": 65536, "bounds": { "top_left": { "lat": -40.979898069620134, "lon": -45 }, "bottom_right": { "lat": -66.51326044311186, "lon": 0 } } } }, "bounds": { "geo_bounds": { "field": "my-geo-field", "wrap_longitude": false } } } }
The API returns results as a binary Mapbox vector tile. Mapbox vector tiles are encoded as Google Protobufs (PBF). By default, the tile contains three layers:
-
A
hits
layer containing a feature for each<field>
value matching thegeo_bounding_box
query. -
An
aggs
layer containing a feature for each cell of thegeotile_grid
orgeohex_grid
. The layer only contains features for cells with matching data. -
A
meta
layer containing:- A feature containing a bounding box. By default, this is the bounding box of the tile.
-
Value ranges for any sub-aggregations on the
geotile_grid
orgeohex_grid
. - Metadata for the search.
The API only returns features that can display at its zoom level. For example, if a polygon feature has no area at its zoom level, the API omits it.
The API returns errors as UTF-8 encoded JSON.
Query parameters
editYou can specify several options for this API as either a query parameter or request body parameter. If you specify both parameters, the query parameter takes precedence.
-
exact_bounds
-
(Optional, Boolean) If
false
, themeta
layer’s feature is the bounding box of the tile. Defaults tofalse
.If
true
, themeta
layer’s feature is a bounding box resulting from ageo_bounds
aggregation. The aggregation runs on<field>
values that intersect the<zoom>/<x>/<y>
tile withwrap_longitude
set tofalse
. The resulting bounding box may be larger than the vector tile.
-
extent
-
(Optional, integer) Size, in pixels, of a side of the tile. Vector tiles are
square with equal sides. Defaults to
4096
.
-
buffer
-
(Optional, integer) Size, in pixels, of a clipping buffer outside the tile.
This allows renderers to avoid outline artifacts from geometries that extend past the extent of the tile.
Defaults to
5
.
-
grid_agg
-
(Optional, string) Aggregation used to create a grid for the
<field>
.Valid values for
grid_agg
-
geotile
(Default) -
geotile_grid
aggregation. -
geohex
-
geohex_grid
aggregation.
-
-
grid_precision
-
(Optional, integer) Precision level for cells in the
grid_agg
. Accepts0
-8
. Defaults to8
. If0
, results don’t include theaggs
layer.Grid precision for
geotile
For a
grid_agg
ofgeotile
, you can use cells in theaggs
layer as tiles for lower zoom levels.grid_precision
represents the additional zoom levels available through these cells. The final precision is computed by as follows:<zoom> + grid_precision
For example, if
<zoom>
is7
andgrid_precision
is8
, then thegeotile_grid
aggregation will use a precision of15
. The maximum final precision is29
.The
grid_precision
also determines the number of cells for the grid as follows:(2^grid_precision) x (2^grid_precision)
For example, a value of
8
divides the tile into a grid of 256 x 256 cells. Theaggs
layer only contains features for cells with matching data.Grid precision for
geohex
For a
grid_agg
ofgeohex
, Elasticsearch uses<zoom>
andgrid_precision
to calculate a final precision as follows:<zoom> + grid_precision
This precision determines the H3 resolution of the hexagonal cells produced by the
geohex
aggregation. The following table maps the H3 resolution for each precision.For example, if
<zoom>
is3
andgrid_precision
is3
, the precision is6
. At a precision of6
, hexagonal cells have an H3 resolution of2
. If<zoom>
is3
andgrid_precision
is4
, the precision is7
. At a precision of7
, hexagonal cells have an H3 resolution of3
.Precision Unique tile bins H3 resolution Unique hex bins Ratio 1

Hexagonal cells don’t align perfectly on a vector tile. Some cells may intersect more than one vector tile. To compute the H3 resolution for each precision, Elasticsearch compares the average density of hexagonal bins at each resolution with the average density of tile bins at each zoom level. Elasticsearch uses the H3 resolution that is closest to the corresponding
geotile
density.

Examples
editThe following requests create the museum
index and add several geospatial
location
values.
response = client.indices.create( index: 'museums', body: { mappings: { properties: { location: { type: 'geo_point' }, name: { type: 'keyword' }, price: { type: 'long' }, included: { type: 'boolean' } } } } ) puts response response = client.bulk( index: 'museums', refresh: true, body: [ { index: { _id: '1' } }, { location: 'POINT (4.912350 52.374081)', name: 'NEMO Science Museum', price: 1750, included: true }, { index: { _id: '2' } }, { location: 'POINT (4.901618 52.369219)', name: 'Museum Het Rembrandthuis', price: 1500, included: false }, { index: { _id: '3' } }, { location: 'POINT (4.914722 52.371667)', name: 'Nederlands Scheepvaartmuseum', price: 1650, included: true }, { index: { _id: '4' } }, { location: 'POINT (4.914722 52.371667)', name: 'Amsterdam Centre for Architecture', price: 0, included: true } ] ) puts response
PUT museums { "mappings": { "properties": { "location": { "type": "geo_point" }, "name": { "type": "keyword" }, "price": { "type": "long" }, "included": { "type": "boolean" } } } } POST museums/_bulk?refresh { "index": { "_id": "1" } } { "location": "POINT (4.912350 52.374081)", "name": "NEMO Science Museum", "price": 1750, "included": true } { "index": { "_id": "2" } } { "location": "POINT (4.901618 52.369219)", "name": "Museum Het Rembrandthuis", "price": 1500, "included": false } { "index": { "_id": "3" } } { "location": "POINT (4.914722 52.371667)", "name": "Nederlands Scheepvaartmuseum", "price":1650, "included": true } { "index": { "_id": "4" } } { "location": "POINT (4.914722 52.371667)", "name": "Amsterdam Centre for Architecture", "price":0, "included": true }
The following request searches the index for location
values that intersect
the 13/4207/2692
vector tile.
GET museums/_mvt/location/13/4207/2692 { "grid_agg": "geotile", "grid_precision": 2, "fields": [ "name", "price" ], "query": { "term": { "included": true } }, "aggs": { "min_price": { "min": { "field": "price" } }, "max_price": { "max": { "field": "price" } }, "avg_price": { "avg": { "field": "price" } } } }
The API returns results as a binary vector tile. When decoded into JSON, the tile contains the following data:
