Vector map improve the visual user experience

Viamaps Vector maps are used by a wide range of very different companies on their websites. A vector map helps provide the user with informative and relevant information in a geographically visual way, enhancing the overall user experience. As you can see from the name, Vector Map, the map is displayed in what is called vectortiles instead of rastertiles.

Vector tiles are a newer technology that has advantages such as being smaller in size, faster to deliver over the web and quicker to generate. There is also a difference in resolution. If a vector file is resized, the resolution does not change. On a Vector map, this means that you won’t experience the map becoming more and more pixelated (fragmented) as you zoom in.

A vector map helps improve the visual user experience

Open data

The background map is based on data from Open Street Maps and, for Denmark, we have added information from GeoDK (link), which has better information on e.g. buildings.

The maps are 100% free of external data.

API with informations

We use either Mapbox or Maplibre (open source Mapbox viewer) to display the map itself, which is then enriched with data, typically via api. This api retrieves the information to be used on the map. For a real estate agent, this could be an image, some information about the property, etc. to be displayed when clicking on a property shown on the map

Styling

To make styling the map as easy as possible, you can work with the map colors in Maputnik, which allows you to change the color of all the elements included in the map.

A vector map is easier to style than e.g. Google Maps and thereby achieve a style that might match the look and feel of the website better.

POI data | points of interest

In addition to the data you want to display on the map, Viamap provides a range of relevant data to enhance the user experience. For example, a real estate agent may want to show daycare centers near the property. We have a wide range of this data available through our API that our customers can choose to draw on.

Once you've said A...

POI data can be combined with distance and route calculation to get the distance to, for example, the nursery or train station, and how long it actually takes to get there – by car, bike or on foot.

Relevant data
