Format of output tiles from tippecanoe?

Question

I generated a mbtiles file with tippecanoe and extracted it with mbutil to filesystem. (It named them all .png)

Anyhow, what format are these tiles in? I tried parsing them with a vector tile parser but it gave me an exception using the C# mapbox-vector-tile project.

Answer 1

Build vector tilesets from large collections of GeoJSON features.

They are Mapbox Vector Tiles.
