Protomaps

Serverless system for planet-scale maps

About Protomaps

Protomaps is a map system that serves basemaps for entire regions from a single static file, without running a tile server. You can deploy it with common tooling such as Docker or a standard package install and integrate it with the systems you already run. Regular community releases, public issue trackers, and extensive documentation help new administrators get from a first install to daily use quickly.
