Create a custom, embeddable static map with zoom, bearing, and pitch
Mapbox's Static Maps API creates an embedded, customizable map for web and mobile apps, without the interactivity.
The Static Maps block allows you to create these maps based on your data streams, and publish that map in realtime. This works great for apps that don't require realtime geolocation tracking, but still want to display an updated location to a user at a custom time, or based on a custom action.
Walkthrough
This block uses the Mapbox Static Map API to generate a visual static map using the provided latitude, longitude, and zoom values.
