Improvements to our new maps

Thanks to all your great feedback over the past few weeks, MapBox has made a lot of great improvements to our new maps. Here are some of the most noticeable changes:

• Zoom level: you wanted another zoom level? You got it.
• Map coverage and labels: improved coverage and road labels in Brazil, Turkey, Mexico, Indonesia, and more. Check out these amazing before-and-after shots of the maps in Brazil. (If your area still needs better map coverage, tell us here!)
• Points of interest: you should now see rail stations, subways, and airport icons, as well as labels for larger buildings and landmarks
• Color adjustments: tweaked the colors to make sure the most important aspects stand out

We’re still working on incorporating a satellite map layer, so stay tuned. And thanks again for sharing your feedback - click here to keep it coming!
