API-Example: Direct GeoJSON integration

You can integrate smaller shapes into your JavaScript code without loading an external GeoJSON file.

In the following example, we've marked the Lafayette Square in Washington, D.C. with a transparent overlay. You can find more details about the GeoJSON format and a how-to in our example: Integrating GeoJSON: points, lines, and areas.

Download options

You have two options to generate your maps:

Standard download
Dynamically generated. Your map is downloaded exactly as it appears in the browser. No elements are omitted. If you save multiple maps at the same zoom level, they may have different font and icon sizes.
Fixed download
For map series with unified font size per zoom level. Your map is created using content and font sizes that we pre-define uniformly for each zoom level, so that fonts and icons from multiple downloads generated at the same zoom level match. If there is not enough space for individual elements in the process, they could be omitted.

These options only affect newly created maps, already created maps will not be affected by changing this setting! Are you unsure which setting is the right one for you? In our manual we go into this topic again in more detail and also generally explain a bit more comprehensively why screen views can differ from the downloaded file (or its preview).

Deactivate Account

You can deactive your maps.com account here. Once you deactivated your account, you will lose access to your account and all of the information stored within your account will be deleted.
