 ## 3.15 `vector_layers`
+
+REQUIRED.
+
+A JSON object whose value is an array of JSON objects. Each of those JSON objects describes one layer of vector tile data. A `vector_layer` object MUST contain the `id` and `fields` keys, and MAY contain the `description`, `minzoom`, or `maxzoom` keys.
+
+#### 3.15.1 `id`
+
+REQUIRED.
+
+A string value representing the the layer id. For added context, this is referred to as the `name` of the layer in the [Mapbox Vector Tile spec](https://github.com/mapbox/vector-tile-spec/tree/master/2.1#41-layers).
+
+#### 3.15.2 `fields`
+
+REQUIRED.
+
+A JSON object whose keys and values are the names and descriptions of attributes available in this layer. Each value (description) MUST be a string that describes the underlying data. If no fields are present the `fields` key MUST be an empty object.
+
+#### 3.15.3 `description`
+
+OPTIONAL.
+
+A string representing a human-readable description of the entire layer's contents.
+
+#### 3.15.4 `minzoom` and `maxzoom`
+
+OPTIONAL.
+
+A number representing the lowest/highest zoom level whose tiles this layer appears in. `minzoom` MUST be greater than or equal to the tileset's `minzoom`. `maxzoom` MUST be less than or equal to the tileset's `maxzoom`.
+
+These keys are used to describe the situation where different sets of vector layers appear in different zoom levels of the same tileset, for example in a case where a "minor roads" layer is only present at high zoom levels.
