Automatic data updates and fully compliant with Chinese laws
By: Chris Wu
We’re now offering 3 government-certified map styles available via Mapbox.cn: Mapbox Streets Chinese, Mapbox Dark Chinese, and Mapbox Light Chinese.
These maps were built in collaboration with a leading Chinese mapping provider, eMapgo (EMG), and reviewed by the State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping for full compliance with Chinese mapping laws. As always, we provide automatic data updates to customers that launch with Mapbox.cn without needing to reconfigure any APIs.
Each carefully designed style features rich POIs, extensive road coverage, and public transit lines throughout China. Because the maps are hosted in country by our partner in China, users can expect up to 10x faster map loads than those hosted outside the country. Mapbox Streets Chinese, Mapbox Dark Chinese, and Mapbox Light Chinese are licensed under one publisher ID and are available on both web and our Maps SDKs for iOS and Android.
Contact our sales team about using these map styles or learn more about Mapbox.cn, our legal, accurate, and performant location services based in China.
