What is mapx
mapx is a set of maps and location APIs for Austria. All data comes from official open sources (BEV, GIP.at, ASFINAG, GeoSphere Austria, ÖBB and others), so there is no usage-based pricing. A free account and API token are required (Access and limits).

The APIs follow the conventions of well-known web mapping services: the same URL shapes, GeoJSON responses and MapLibre-compatible styles. Existing MapLibre, Leaflet or OpenLayers code needs few changes.
