Made this quick interactive map of building heights in toronto (2025 data)
This stemmed out of want a simple component/example for tippecanoe -> PMTiles -> MapLibre workflow that we can use for other projects where we want to create interactive maps with specific data.
Why building heights? It's a good example dataset (~300mb .shp rendered down to ~40mb or so) and pretty interesting to explore to see patterns of development. There have been others (myself included) who have made similar interactive maps

- https://jamaps.github.io/toronto_building_heights_map/ but unfortunately these links no longer work. So I thought it would be nice to have a live example with more recent data.
