What's next for Stamen Maps? | Stamen

The Stamen map tiles have long been one of our most iconic offerings, but only recently have we engaged with how to sustainably move them into the future.

Attention friends of Stamen’s Watercolor, Toner and Terrain map styles! We've provided these custom-designed #OpenStreetMap basemaps since 2011, and now we're partnering with @stadiamaps to host new and improved versions of these maps on their modern infrastructure. This new service will require a Stadia account for access, and comes with a generous free tier for non-commercial use. The old links will keep working until October 31.

State of the Map recap | Stamen

After three years of limited conference attendance, we had a blast at State of the Map US this year! The conference was held in Richmond, Virginia, so a long trip for those of us on the West Coast, but close to home for others, now that we are fully remote. It was great to come...
