Let’s get the word out about your work so your impact can grow. We can collaborate on shared storytelling, events, and long-term partnerships.
From tools to curriculum
We work with instructors and students across disciplines to connect the classroom to the latest our platform has to offer: Design beautiful maps in Mapbox Studio, develop interactive web maps with Mapbox GL JS, and use our APIs and kits to build location-based games and mobile apps.
"Mapbox is a great way to get students excited about mapping because they can modify their basemaps. Mapbox Studio is fun to work with and integrates nicely with other open source technology. They have lots of great tutorials and a supportive education team. Working with Mapbox introduces my students to cutting edge tools that will serve them well whether they want to focus on design or more engineering related work in the future."


"In my teaching, Mapbox Studio is an excellent way to introduce geography students to web development concepts. Students can add their Studio styles into HTML templates for Mapbox GL JS and learn how to publish their creations on a website, even if they don’t have prior programming experience. And for students who are familiar with data analysis tools like R, you can use the mapboxapi library that I built to leverage Mapbox tools into spatial data science projects."
