Superclasses: :class:`~gi.repository.GObject.Object`





Provides low-level access to the contents of a vector tile.

To create a new :obj:`~gi.repository.Shumate.VectorReader`\, use :obj:`~gi.repository.VectorReader.new` and pass
the bytes of a vector tile, which you might get from a :obj:`~gi.repository.Shumate.DataSource`\.
Then, use :obj:`~gi.repository.VectorReader.iterate` to get a :obj:`~gi.repository.Shumate.VectorReaderIter`
and iterate over the features in the tile. You can create multiple
:obj:`~gi.repository.Shumate.VectorReaderIter`\s from the same :obj:`~gi.repository.Shumate.VectorReader`\.
