Theme Library

Stadia Maps has multiple theme options available. You can browse our themes below. The {r} placeholder should be understood by most tile widgets. If yours does not understand this, you can either leave it blank to get raw 256x256 PNGs, or manually replace it with @2x or @3x for retina 2x or 3x scale. In the case of a request made outside a web browser, make sure to add the API key via query string or HTTP header as described here.

Alidade Smooth

Our custom Alidade Smooth theme is designed for maps that use a lot of markers or overlays. It features a muted color scheme and fewer points of interest to allow your added data to shine.

Outdoors

The Stadia Outdoors theme is very close to the well known OSM Bright theme. It highlights a moderate number of features, and we've made some changes of our own to highlight natural features such as mountians. We recommend using this theme where you provide directions, have minimal overlays or other data that might clash with the theme styling, or want POI data. While the name says "outdoors," we try to keep this theme applicable to a wide range of uses.

OSM Bright

The OSM Bright theme was developed as a sensible starting point for quickly making beautiful maps based on the OpenStreetMap database. It highlights the content in the map itself. We recommend using OSM bright where you provide directions, have minimal overlays or other data that might clash with the theme styling, or want POI data, and are not satisfied with our outdoors theme for some reason.
