###BruTile BruTile is a C# open source library to access tile services like OpenStreetMap and Bing. BruTile has few dependencies, is platform independent and has a limited scope. It is intended for reuse by other more sophisticated libraries

###Get it from NuGet PM> Install-Package BruTile

https://www.nuget.org/packages/BruTile

###Projects that use BruTile

• [ArcBruTile] (https://arcbrutile.codeplex.com/) a plugin for ArcGIS
• [SharpMap] (https://sharpmap.codeplex.com/) a GIS library
• [Mapsui] (https://github.com/pauldendulk/Mapsui) a slippy map that runs in Silverlight
• [DotSpatial] (https://dotspatial.codeplex.com/) a GIS library that is used in [HyrdroDesktop] (https://hydrodesktop.codeplex.com/)
• [PDOK] (https://www.pdok.nl/nl/producten/pdok-software/pdok-extensie-voor-arcgis) extensie voor ArcGIS

###Demo Go [here] (http://brutiledemo.appspot.com/) for an online Silverlight demo of BruTile used in Mapsui

###Portable Class Library (PCL) BruTile is a PCL with Profile336 which targets:

• .Net Framework 4.0.3 and higher
• Windows 8
• Windows Phone Silverlight 8
• Silverlight 5
• Windows Phone 8.1
• Xamarin.iOS
• Xamarin.Android

###For downward compatibility we also compile for:

• .Net Framework 4.0
• .Net Framework 3.5

###Supported tile service protocols:

• TMS
• OSM (TMS with inverted y-axis)
• WMS-C
• WMS (tiled requests to a regular WMS - like WMS-C)
• WMTS
• ArcGIS Tile Server

###Known tile sources: You can easily create an ITileSource for a number of specific tile servers with statements like:

var tileSource1 = KnownTileSources.Create(KnownTileSource.OpenStreetMap)
var tileSource2 = KnownTileSources.Create(KnownTileSource.MapQuestAerial)
var tileSource3 = KnownTileSources.Create(KnownTileSource.BingHybrid)
var tileSource4 = KnownTileSources.Create(KnownTileSource.StamenTonerLite)
var tileSource5 = KnownTileSources.Create(KnownTileSource.EsriWorldShadedRelief)

###Roadmap Here are our future plans:

• Update automatic TileSchema generation to bring WMTS, WMS, TMS and WMSC in line.
• Rename all classes to get them in line with WMTS types.
• Better samples
• Better documentation
• Release v1

###Warnings Note, this library is work in progress. It is in BETA.

• At the moment there is no documentation.
• We will introduce breaking changed frequently. We change the API whenever we feel this is an improvement.
• We adopt new technologies relatively fast, dropping support for older frameworks.
• Although I do have a general plan of where to go with this library I do not have the resources to go towards that goal in a systematic way. I add functionality depending on what is needed in the projects I work on.
