Relive the best moments from MapTiler Connect 2025, the annual event created for developers, cartographers, and map enthusiasts. The conference was an opportunity to connect with innovators, explore the benefits of open collaboration, and celebrate the creation of maps that are interacted with by over 500 million people globally.

Key Themes & Announcements:

GeoSplats: The Future of 3D Realism A major announcement was the launch of GeoSplats, a groundbreaking technology that allows for the creation of immersive, photorealistic 3D models and maps. GeoSplats achieve higher and more stable frame rates, ensuring maps stay perfectly smooth when zooming, panning, or rotating, even with large 3D data.
New Map Generation MapTiler unveiled its new generation of maps, now grouped into clear categories for straight-forward selection.
Streets v4: The new major version of the flagship map, enhanced with street-level details like traffic lights, zebra crossings, footways, and cycle ways for safe and efficient navigation.
Base Map: Designed to be the simplest, unobtrusive backdrop, allowing user data to take center stage while providing essential geographic context.
Developer SDKs and Visualization The event highlighted the ease of building applications with MapTiler's SDKs. Developers can combine their maps with advanced modules like the 3D globe and weather integration, as well as Augmented Reality (AR) features that work across every device.
MapTiler Open Foundation Reinforcing the commitment to open source, MapTiler announced the launch of the Open Foundation, starting with a significant financial commitment to be distributed directly to the community. This initiative is focused on ensuring the money supports the people creating core value and expanding the open ecosystem.
The event provided a valuable platform to listen, learn, and discuss the future of cartography, focusing on how maps are evolving into powerful communication media through personalization, clarity, and technology.
