Is there a process from going from shapefile/geojson to vector tiles?

I am guessing I have to convert the shapefile to raster then add the styles and then use the mbtile writer?

Take a look to the following links:

You can use the SystemCaller to add GDAL functionality to FME.


Yes, Mapbox Vector Tiles will be coming to FME 2019 betas before year end. But in the meantime doing system caller would seem to be a workaround as suggested. Sorry...
