Since the release of ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Standard, ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ continues to iterate on the capabilities of the style. The latest update introduces further customizability ¡ª addressing the most prominent feedback heard from customers. It also introduces high-definition (HD) roads, an efficient method for configuring basemap interactions, and support in the .
As always, Standard updates automatically with these new features without ongoing maintenance, offering a convenient and seamless experience across platforms.
More color customization strengthens branding and differentiation
Monochrome
and Faded
color themes were introduced in summer 2024, allowing users to tailor the style for a wide variety of purposes. ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ has now added support for completely custom color themes through the use of look-up tables (LUTs). Designers can easily adjust the overall color tone of the basemap with LUTs by creating and applying color themes that better align with the aesthetics of their existing map and application.

Customize the color of roads
Along with adjusting overall color themes, designers can directly adjust the color of road networks for brand, use case, or regulatory needs. For example, a developer can visually deemphasize the road network by choosing a lighter color, shifting more visual attention to the buildings and surroundings.

High-definition roads improve navigation precision and driver safety - now in beta
¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ high-definition roads (HD roads) contain highly precise road data like road and lane boundary geometry, lane markings, turn arrows, and more. This is especially important for in-vehicle navigation, as advanced driver assistance systems rely on accurate road information. HD roads can also help on-demand delivery and urban mobility applications identify more precise drop-off and pick-up locations.

An HD roads can be used with Standard or a custom style to bring HD roads to any map.
With the HD roads import, customers can easily style multiple HD road layers at once, without having to worry about the underlying data structure. The HD roads import allows users to customize the color of roads and road islands, as well as the emissive strength value for setting dark mode styling. HD roads can be styled using ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Studio or through the Navigation or Maps SDKs by utilizing the setStyleImportConfigProperty
method. See documentation for and .

To get started with HD roads in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Studio, copy sample style into your Studio account. Alternatively, to add HD roads in runtime, this style url mapbox://styles/mapbox/high-definition-roads
can be passed as argument to the method.?
HD roads are currently in beta and available in 25 cities, including Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Palo Alto, San Diego, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Washington D.C., San Francisco, and more. ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ will continue expanding this coverage to additional cities in 2025.
Simplify creating interactions with map elements
Standard now unifies creating interactions for both basemap and custom map elements across platforms. Developers can design interactions manually or directly in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Studio, reducing the need for code while still fully utilizing ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ APIs. This simplifies the process of defining map interactions and retrieving basemap metadata, saving time and developer resources. This feature is currently available to create interactions with place labels and POI layers. Here is the documentation for and .

For example, applications can enlarge a POI icon or change the color of it upon click. With a client-side implementation, they can serve additional information in a pop-up like hours of operation or customer reviews.
The Static Images API now supports Standard - now in beta
¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ has released beta support for ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Standard in the . Users can generate high-quality static map images using the 3D basemap. This improves the ease of integration and ensures that a single map style can be used for both dynamic and static maps.
More coverage of landmark labels
¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ has also integrated better coverage of text labels to annotate key 3D landmarks, making them more identifiable on the map.

Improvements available now in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Standard
The ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Standard updates are available in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Maps SDKs v3.9.0 or v11.9.0. ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Documentation includes guidance on migrating to and the Mobile Maps SDKs v11 for and . Standard is also available in the ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Navigation SDKs and the Dash in-car application. To preview ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Standard, .
