Question

Hello, I'm trying to find a way to query features of vector tilesets when they are not visible.

I tried querySourceFeatures(), but it's not working.

Please let me know how can I implement this.

Thanks

Hi @bitcooker,

The querySourceFeatures returns features only from the currently loaded vector tiles and GeoJSON source tiles. This function does not check tiles outside the currently visible viewport. Unfortunately, it's not currently possible to query the features in the tiles that weren't loaded.
