Cartography Pro-Tips: Creating Basemaps for Amazon Location Service
Ross Thorn, Katie Kowalsky, and Kelsey Taylor, Stamen Design
In 2022, Amazon Location Service brought on Stamen Design as a partner to help develop and launch new interactive basemap styles as part of their Open Data Maps collection. Together, we have produced four maps: light and dark versions of a full-color reference map suitable for data overlays, and a pair of more muted map styles appropriate for visualizing more complex data. In this talk, we discuss what makes these maps unique and best practices for making maps using a global set of vector tiles built from OpenStreetMap data.
This presentation was made at the 2023 annual meeting of the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS). For more information on NACIS, check out NACIS.org.
