Rough overview: Leaflet: fairly simple open source mapping library. Canvas-based. The original Mapbox (called MapboxJS) is based on this. Openlayers: open source mapping library that’s more capable (e.g many different protections) but also more complex. Can render to Canvas or SVG. Openstreetmap: public and free source of mapping data. Mapbox uses this as a default data source. MapboxGL: completely new implementation of a mapping library written in WebGL (should perform better). MapboxGL changed its license recently, prompting the creation of the libremap fork. |
