Stadia Maps provides comprehensive mapping capabilities for every use case:

• Interactive Maps: Combine your favorite open-source SDK with our Map Tiles to create immersive map experiences with full developer control
• Static Maps: Generate simple, embeddable map images for websites, emails, and PDFs
• Map Styles: Choose from our professionally designed basemap styles or build custom styles with tools like Maputnik
• Vector Tiles: Global vector tile coverage for rendering interactive maps on all platforms
• Raster Basemaps: Worldwide raster basemap coverage with highest detail in North America, Europe, and major urban centers
• Satellite Imagery: Satellite tiles covering the globe with highest detail in populated areas

Built on Open Mapping Standards

Flexible mapping solutions that adapt seamlessly to your needs

• Third-party integration with all major mapping libraries.
• Local information and community-driven updates through OpenStreetMap (OSM).
• We contribute to and maintain several open-source projects, including MapLibre. Our co-founder, Luke Seelenbinder, served three terms on MapLibre's governing board.

Use Cases & Applications

Stadia Maps map APIs power applications across multiple industries and use cases:

• Real Estate & Property Search: Display property locations, commute times, and neighborhood context to help users find their next home or investment
• Logistics & Fleet Management: Visualize delivery routes, track vehicle locations, and optimize last-mile operations with reliable, accurate maps
• Travel & Tourism: Power trip planning tools, hotel and attraction discovery, hiking route visualization, and destination exploration
• E-Commerce: Show store locations, delivery coverage areas, and help customers visualize products in context
• Field Service & Maintenance: Route field teams to job sites, visualize service areas, and track mobile workforce activity
• Data Visualization & Analytics: Communicate insights spatially with choropleth maps, heat maps, and custom data overlays
• Mobile Apps: Add lightweight, performant maps to iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter applications
• Business Intelligence: Embed maps in dashboards and reports to reveal geographic patterns in business data

Access all of this via REST APIs and SDKs across JavaScript, Python, Kotlin, Swift, and mobile frameworks.

Global Coverage & Reliability

Stadia Maps is built on OpenStreetMap and our global tile infrastructure to provide production-grade coverage:

• Global vector tile coverage for rendering interactive maps on all platforms
• Raster basemaps covering worldwide extent with highest detail in North America, Europe, and major urban centers
• Satellite imagery tiles at 512x512 px resolution, covering the same area as a vector tile (4x the area of a standard raster tile)
• 12+ professionally designed basemap styles ready to use, or build custom styles with tools like Maputnik
• Real-time tile serving with geographic redundancy for reliability
• Regular updates as OpenStreetMap data improves
• GDPR and CCPA compliant with EU data centers available for organizations with data residency requirements
• No telemetry collection or end-user tracking

Unlike user-tracking solutions, Stadia Maps doesn't collect behavioral data. We're committed to privacy-first mapping.
