Design beautiful custom maps with Mapbox Studio

What is Mapbox Studio?

Mapbox Studio is a suite of applications for designing custom map styles and managing your location data. Use Mapbox Studio to build and design a map to your exact specifications by uploading and editing your own data, utilizing Mapbox-provided tilesets, adding custom fonts and icons, or refining the built-in core styles. With Mapbox Studio, full data management and design control are at your fingertips.

What can I do with Mapbox Studio?

Mapbox Studio gives you full control over styling interactive maps through the style editor. You can tweak the colors and fonts on a core style in minutes and start using the map in an app or website, or you can build your own map style from the ground up with custom data and carefully crafted style layers. Mapbox Studio also lets you import data to use in your styles. When you import data into Mapbox Studio, your data is converted into vector tiles. Supported formats include Shapefiles, geoJSON files, CSV files, and more. Finally, Mapbox Studio includes a dataset editor that lets you manage your own datasets. The dataset editor makes it possible to add point, line, and polygon features with draw tools. It includes a property editor for adding custom fields to your features. In Mapbox Studio, datasets can be converted to tilesets and then used in styles.
