Title: MapBox network data
Post by: cognosonthefly on 22 Feb 2018 01:29:24 AM
Hi everyone,

Does anyone know what data is send to the mapbox-service when loading / zooming a map in CA11? I hope not the data points themselves, but I cannot find any clue about the technical background which works there?

Would like to hear your ideas! :)

Hi,

I heard one of the Product Managers from IBM say in a presentation that no data gets sent out to Mapbox. The map images are downloaded from the Mapbox site to your browser, and data points are plotted locally.

Cheers!
