Vector Tileset thunderforest.outdoors-v1

This was our second vector tileset to be designed, and contains all the information needed to render maps such as our Outdoors, Landscape and OpenCycleMap layers. Notably it contains a rich set of points of interest, along with topographic information such as contours and hillshading.

This vector tileset is now deprecated, and should not be used for your projects. We recommend using thunderforest.outdoors-v2 instead.

The TileJSON endpoint for this vector tileset is
