A Mapbox Case Study
Strava, the global fitness community for athletes, wanted a map experience that accurately reflected runners’ and cyclists’ journeys while making activity details easy to read. To do that, Strava used Mapbox for a custom, modern-minimalistic map style that highlighted trail names, elevation contours, and smooth GPS traces.
Mapbox helped Strava create a map that better tells the story of each activity, from steep climbs to routes along rivers, canyons, and beaches. The result was a more engaging, athlete-focused experience that supports sharing performances and exploring routes across Strava’s millions of users, with the map also powering features like the Global Heatmap.
