# OSM Liberty [![BSD licensed](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-BSD-blue.svg)](https://github.com/lukasmartinelli/osm-liberty/blob/gh-pages/LICENSE.md) A free Mapbox GL basemap for everyone with complete liberty to use and self host. OSM Liberty is a fork of OSM Bright based on free data sources with a mission for a clear good looking design for the everyday user. **[osm-liberty.lukasmartinelli.ch](http://osm-liberty.lukasmartinelli.ch/)** ## Usage You can instantly use the style in your Mapbox GL maps. The vector tiles are served from the @klokantech public CDN and the raster tiles, glyphs and sprites directly from GitHub. Take a look at the [demo page source code](index.html) how to display a map. To use it you don't need any access keys and you can host the tiles and assets yourself for complete liberty. ```html OSM Liberty
``` ## Data Sources - [OSM2VectorTiles](http://osm2vectortiles.org/) as vector data source - [Natural Earth Tiles](naturalearthtiles.org) for relief shading - [Maki](https://www.mapbox.com/maki-icons/) as icon set ## Map Design The map design originates from OSM Bright but strives to reach a unobtrusive and clean design for everyday use. Colored relief shading from Natural Earth make the low zoom levels look good. ![Europe](demo/europe.png) ![Switzerland](demo/europe.png) ![Zurich](demo/zurich.png) ![Zurich Bürkliplatz](demo/zurich_buerkliplatz.png) **Modify Style** You can directly modify the style with the help of the [mapbox-gl-style-editor](https://github.com/erikandre/mapbox-gl-style-editor). ## Icon Design A [Maki](https://github.com/mapbox/maki) icon set using colors to distinguish between icon categories. **Color Palette** Color Name | Hex Value -------------|---------- Blue | `#5d60be` Light Blue | `#4898ff` Orange | `#d97200` Red | `#ba3827` Brown | `#725a50` Green | `#76a723` **Modify Icons** 1. Take the style JSON file and upload it to the [Maki Editor](). 2. Apply your changes and download the icon set again. 3. Ensure you format the JSON first with `cat iconset.json | jq -MS '.'`
