Advanced Mapbox Vector Tiles

mapbox 7 vector 80 tiles 7 mobile 3 grid 8

Example of a Mapbox vector tiles map with custom tile grid.

A vector tiles map which reuses the same source tiles for subsequent zoom levels to save bandwidth on mobile devices. Note: No map will be visible when the access token has expired.
