This talk presents an open-source stack for building, rendering, and using OpenStreetMap vector tiles. Ascend Maps is a cross-platform application for interactive maps. It is highly customizable, with hiking, cycling, and transit views for the base map, user-editable sources, styles, and shaders for custom maps, and plugins for search, routing, and map sources.
tangram-ng extends the Tangram ES map engine originally created by Mapzen, adding support for 3D terrain, embedded SVG, and additional raster formats, along with substantial performance and stability improvements.
geodesk-tiles builds vector tiles on demand from a GeoDesk library, making it possible to start serving tiles for the whole world instantly. geodesk-tiles also provides geocoding for worldwide place and POI search.
