Introducing Emerald, our new base style
Raw
gistfile1.txt
We just did a big facelift to OSM Bright, our trusty workhorse for versatile, all-around map styling. What you'll find in Emerald:
- Improved road hierarchy-- digging deeper into OpenStreetMap taxonomy, we were able to stratify thoroughfares, hiking trails, highways and alleys more finely than ever before.
- Public transit: metro riders from DC to Paris will find their stations bolder and in their local insignia. We're looking forward to more local customizations as our source data gets even better.
- When in Rome: worldwide language support for labels in the local dialect (as data is available).
- v2 Terrain: Scale cliffs, plumb canyons, and course through Alpine switchbacks in minutes. Recently declassified data has tripled the resolution at which we're canvassing the world. Words don't really do justice here; you'll just have to see it (wanderlust likely).
And the best part? Emerald was made in Mapbox Studio, and [its source files] are free to peruse. Drop it into your next project, or take it somewhere entirely new.
