Overpass Ultra supports MapLibre Stylesheets for styling map-features. Below is a introduction on how to use MapLibre styles in Ultra, some examples and a specification of Ultra's styling support.
How to Use
The MapLibre styling can be attached to a query written in the Overpass-QL query language style:
key of YAML front-matter.
---
style: ... your MapLibre style here ...
---
... your overpass query here ...
The value of the style:
key can contain:
- a URL to a MapLibre style
- a full MapLibre style object
- a partial MapLibre style
Partial MapLibre styles
In order to simplify the use of MapLibre styles, Overpass Ultra allows you to define only the information for styling the Overpass API results. It does this by appending the layers you specify to those in the base map style. The base map style can be customized via the extends:
key.
Additionally, in your layers you can omit the source:
and id:
keys and Overpass Ultra will populate them automatically.
In order to place your layers below existing style layers, you can use the beforeLayerId:
key.
Examples
Line Styles
This example styles cycle infrastructure results overtop of the default map style.
