Hello Zach,
I'm not sure if I understood completely what you need. If you need to
get a large GeoJSON into a webserver (be it WMS (rendered image tiles)
or WFS (vector data in a specified bounding box and format)), I'd try
the following ways:
1. a) Convert the GeoJSON to Shape using QGIS (make sure displaying
loaded data files automatically is off)
1. b) Import Shapefile into PostGIS DB (PostgreSQL with activated
PostGIS extension)
1 c) Use this DB as source for Mapserver
(http://mapserver.org/input/vector/postgis.html) and do any WFS or WMS
requests needed, Mapserver will handle the zooms and bounds. You may
want to use OpenLayers or Leaflet (or something else handling WMS/WFS)
to display the map.
2. a) Use the description in this link to import the GeoJSON into
PostGIS (I have not tried it, I normally use QGIS but if the file is
very very large...)
https://geekforum.wordpress.com/2014/05/30/using-postgis-the-geographical-information-system-extension-to-postgresql/
2. b) the rest is the same as above.
I hope this helps you some.
Cheers
Lars

looks like we need vectiles but i am not sure if i create them in
postgis or geoserver/mapserver.
does anyone know?
we have a large static geojson file that needs to be chunked up into
vectiles for different zooms and bounds. but before i apply regex on
it, is there already a solution out there?
