Atlas
Atlas lets you deploy and run Mapbox APIs on your own infrastructure, whether on your own private cloud or on-premises.
Style beautiful custom basemaps in Studio then use them with Mapbox GL JS to create beautiful heat maps or complex data visualizations. Bring business intelligence visualizations on-premises with drop-in support for Microsoft Power BI, Tableau, MicroStrategy, and IBM Cognos. Create custom tilesets of high resolution satellite imagery and use Tippecanoe to transform massive vector datasets into slim mbtiles files. Use Atlas to power your private mobile applications using our Mapbox Maps SDKs for Android and iOS. You can even use Atlas with our Unity SDK to power 3D visualizations using sensitive data.

Yes! You can use custom tilesets (MBtiles files) in the on-premises version of Studio available in Atlas. You can use Tippecanoe or GDAL to create these tilesets before uploading to your Atlas instance.
No, at the moment Atlas does not support the Mapbox Terrain-RGB raster tileset.
Currently only API calls with public access tokens (pk.* tokens) are supported.
Yes, you can use Mapbox GL JS with Atlas. To get started, replace mapboxgl.accessToken with an Atlas access token and set mapboxgl.config.API_URL to the URL of your Atlas server.
Yes, you can use Mapbox GL JS with Atlas. To get started, L.mapbox.accessToken with an Atlas access token and L.mapbox.config.HTTPS_URL to the URL of your Atlas server.
Only GL styles with L.mapbox.styleLayer are supported. See Using Your Mapbox Studio styles everywhere. Mapbox Studio Classic styles and legacy styles are not supported.
- Versions 0.40 through 0.46 of Mapbox GL JS
- Versions 2.0 through 3.1 of Mapbox.js

To upgrade your web applications you’ll need to switch from classic styles to GL styles. We recommend switching from Mapbox.js to Mapbox GL JS. Alternatively, you can use L.mapbox.styleLayer in Mapbox.js to load GL styles. Contact Mapbox support (help@mapbox.com) to receive a detailed upgrade and migration guide.
