Map Tile Set

A Map Tile Set is an uploaded raster basemap for the Operational Map. Its MBTiles archive supplies imagery that Nautobot serves locally.

Add a basemap

1. Ask the administrator to configure persistent private atlas storage using the Operational Map guide.
2. Open Map Tile Sets and select Add.
3. Enter a unique name, upload a raster .mbtiles file, and leave Active selected to offer it on the map.
4. Save, then open the Operational Map and select the basemap.

TRAX reads raster format, attribution, available zoom levels, and bounds from the archive. These values are displayed as metadata rather than entered separately. PNG, JPEG, and WebP raster archives are supported; vector archives need a different renderer and are rejected.

Viewing missions does not grant access to basemaps. Users need permission to view the specific tile set, including for archive downloads. Replacing an archive refreshes its metadata and tile-cache version. Deleting or replacing it removes the old file after a successful database commit when no record still references it.
