Static map with marker?

[Pedro]

I am considering upgrading my current plan (Vector) to start using static maps as an image. With Google Maps I could specify the coordinates of a marker in the URL and the rendered image would have that marker (see https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/maps-static/intro for an example).

Does this feature exist with MapTiler? I would test myself but I cannot without upgrading my plan.

When you have signed in (using a free account even), you can use the static map generator page: https://cloud.maptiler.com/maps/basic/static

It lists having markers as an option (but not using custom icons):

Adding overlay & more

It is possible to add these parameters to the URL (in addition to the required key):

Polygon

• path - comma-separated lng,lat, pipe-separated pairs
  • e.g. 5.9,45.8|5.9,47.8|10.5,47.8|10.5,45.8|5.9,45.8
  • latlng ( latlng=true or latlng=1) - indicates the path coordinates are in lat,lng order rather than the usual lng,lat
• encodedpath - Path encoded according to Google Encoded Polyline Format
  • e.g. _p~iF~ps|U_ulLnnqC_mqNvxq`@
  • encodedpath has priority over path (if both are specified)
• fill - color to use as the fill (e.g. red, rgba(255,255,255,0.5), #0000ff, none, false)
• stroke - color of the path stroke
• width - width of the stroke (in pixels)
• padding - “percetange” padding for fitted endpoints (bounds-based and auto)
  • e.g. value of 0.1 means “add 10% size to each side to make sure the area of interest is nicely visible”

Markers

• markers - comma-separated lng,lat, pipe-separated pairs
  • e.g. 14.4,50.1|8.6,47.4|2.4,48.9 - 3 separate markers will be displayed

Other

• attribution (attribution=false or attribution=0) to disable attribution (make sure to display the correct attribution yourself in case you use this)
