Example showing vector tiles in EPSG:4326, reprojected to a polar projection.
Vector tile layers can be reprojected to other projections. This example shows vector tiles in geographic coordinates (EPSG:4326) reprojected to North Pole Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area (ESRI:102017). For polar regions, vector tiles in geographic coordinates are recommended, because Web Mercator tiles do not work beyond 85° North and South.
Note: Make sure to get your own API key at https://www.maptiler.com/cloud/ when using this example. No map will be visible when the API key has expired.
