A peek over AJ’s shoulder while he uses an early internal preview of TileMill 2, 100% powered by our new vector tile stack developed by Dane, Artem, and Young.
We’re combining TileMill’s deep design control and the worldwide big data of MapBox Streets into a fast, incredibly powerful interface. Now brands can use house fonts on the map, organizations can specify approved international borders, and search companies can integrate their own POIs into the map tiles. This is a major element in our push to make maps the canvas for everything location, and it’s a lot more than just changing colors. It’s about radical customization, and taking cartography to scale.
