Migrate

These guides compare calls from your current provider with their Unmap equivalents and explain the capabilities that require a different service or have no equivalent.

Choose the guide for Google Maps, Mapbox, HERE or Esri. If you already use MapLibre, start with Calling the API directly to connect the style URL. Other renderers need to support Unmap's vector tile and style formats.

unmap provides worldwide vector maps. Geocoding and routing remain Canadian. If you need search or routing outside Canada, Street View, or Places photos, keep those services with your current provider. Each guide says so up front.

Coming from Mapbox GL JS or Google Maps JavaScript? Paste your code into the code converter for the unmap version and a list of what changed, then use the guide for the why.

The fifth guide is narrower: it moves an integration with the Google Maps Platform Route Optimization API (optimizeTours) to Unmap Optimize. It covers REST transport, credentials, supported fields and differences in travel times, solutions and billing.

Nothing here assumes you have used unmap before. The Quickstart is the 60-second Hello World; these pages are the translation from the API you already know.
