APIs
Mapbox Tiling Service
Mapbox Tiling Service (MTS) is a tool for creating vector tilesets. With MTS, you use sets of configuration options (tileset recipes) to transform your geospatial data into vector tiles. The resulting tiles are hosted on Mapbox servers for use in your applications.
Mapbox Vector Tiles API
The Mapbox Vector Tiles API serves vector tiles from Mapbox-hosted vector tilesets.
Mapbox Raster Tiles API
The Mapbox Raster Tiles API serves raster tiles generated from satellite imagery tilesets and tilesets generated from raster data uploaded to Mapbox.com.
Mapbox Static Images API
The Mapbox Static Images API serves standalone, static map images generated from Mapbox Studio styles. These images can be displayed on web and mobile devices without the aid of a mapping library or API. They look like an embedded map, but do not have interactivity or controls.
Mapbox Static Tiles API
The Mapbox Static Tiles API serves raster tiles generated from Mapbox Studio styles. Raster tiles can be used in traditional web mapping libraries like Mapbox.js, Leaflet, OpenLayers, and others to create interactive slippy maps. The Static Tiles API is well-suited for maps with limited interact...
Mapbox Styles API
The Mapbox Styles API lets you read and change map styles, fonts, and images. This API is the basis for Mapbox Studio. If you use Studio, Mapbox GL JS, or the Mapbox Mobile SDKs, you are already using the Styles API. This documentation is useful for software developers who want to programmatical...
Mapbox Tilequery API
The Mapbox Tilequery API allows you to retrieve data about specific features from a vector tileset, based on a given latitude and longitude. The Tilequery API makes it possible to query for features within a radius, do point-in-polygon queries, query for features in multiple composite layers, an...
Mapbox Uploads API
The Mapbox Uploads API transforms geographic data into tilesets that can be used with maps and geographic applications. Given a wide variety of geospatial formats, it normalizes projections and generates tiles at multiple zoom levels to make data viewable on the web.
Mapbox Tiling Service (MTS)
Mapbox Tiling Service (MTS) is a tool for creating vector tilesets. With MTS, you use sets of configuration options (tileset recipes) to transform your geospatial data into vector tiles. The resulting tiles are hosted on Mapbox servers for use in your applications.
Mapbox Datasets API
The Mapbox Datasets API supports reading, creating, updating, and removing features from a dataset. Using the Datasets API involves interacting with two types of objects: datasets and features. Datasets contain one or more collections of GeoJSON features. When you edit a dataset object, you chan...
Mapbox Fonts API
The Mapbox Fonts API accepts fonts as raw binary data, allows those fonts to be deleted, and generates encoded letters for map renderers. Two types of fonts are supported: TrueType fonts, usually with .ttf file extensions, and OpenType fonts, with .otf extensions. Fonts are managed on a per-acco...
