The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
This specification attempts to create a standard for representing metadata about multiple types of web-based layers, to aid clients in configuration and browsing.
TileJSON manifest files use the JSON format as described in RFC 4627.
Implementations MUST treat unknown keys as if they weren't present. However, implementations MUST expose unknown key/values in their API so that API users can optionally handle these keys. Implementations MUST treat invalid values for keys as if they weren't present. If the key is required, implementations MUST treat the entire TileJSON manifest file as invalid and refuse operation.
{
// REQUIRED. A semver.org style version number. Describes the version of
// the TileJSON spec that is implemented by this JSON object.
"tilejson": "2.0.0",
// OPTIONAL. Default: null. A name describing the tileset. The name can
// contain any legal character. Implementations SHOULD NOT interpret the
// name as HTML.
"name": "compositing",
// OPTIONAL. Default: null. A text description of the tileset. The
// description can contain any legal character. Implementations SHOULD NOT
// interpret the description as HTML.
"description": "A simple, light grey world.",
// OPTIONAL. Default: "1.0.0". A semver.org style version number. When
// changes across tiles are introduces, the minor version MUST change.
// This may lead to cut off labels. Therefore, implementors can decide to
// clean their cache when the minor version changes. Changes to the patch
// level MUST only have changes to tiles that are contained within one tile.
// When tiles change significantly, the major version MUST be increased.
// Implementations MUST NOT use tiles with different major versions.
"version": "1.0.0",
// OPTIONAL. Default: null. Contains an attribution to be displayed
// when the map is shown to a user. Implementations MAY decide to treat this
// as HTML or literal text. For security reasons, make absolutely sure that
// this field can't be abused as a vector for XSS or beacon tracking.
"attribution": "<a href='http://openstreetmap.org'>OSM contributors</a>",
// OPTIONAL. Default: null. Contains a mustache template to be used to
// format data from grids for interaction.

// abused as a vector for XSS or beacon tracking.
"legend": "Dangerous zones are red, safe zones are green",

"scheme": "xyz",
// REQUIRED. An array of tile endpoints. {z}, {x} and {y} are replaced with

// If the array doesn't contain any entries, interactivity is not supported

}Clients MAY cache files retrieved from a remote server. When implementations decide to perform caching, they MUST honor valid cache control HTTP headers as defined in the HTTP specification for both tile images and the TileJSON manifest file.
