Static Maps API

A map wherever a map fits.

Server-rendered PNG and WebP maps with markers, routes, and zones — for receipts, push notifications, PDFs, and anywhere JavaScript can’t go.

What it does

The Static Maps API renders any view of your map — with markers, encoded polylines, and zone overlays — to a crisp raster in one GET request. Same styles as your interactive maps, so brand consistency is automatic.

It renders at your edge in a few milliseconds and caches aggressively, making it safe to embed in order-confirmation emails sent to millions.

Key features

Engineered for the hot path.

Style-consistent

Rendered from the same vector styles as your live maps — receipts match the app, pixel for pixel.

Routes & zones

Overlay encoded polylines, isochrone polygons, and marker sets with per-element styling.

Retina & WebP

@2x/@3x density and modern formats keep emails light and screens sharp.

Millisecond renders

Tile-cache-backed rasterizer built for transactional volume, not one-off screenshots.

Signed URLs

HMAC-signed request URLs safe to embed in public emails without exposing keys.

Localized labels

Arabic or English labels per request — match the recipient, not the server.

Why teams switch

Hosted static-map APIs bill per 1,000 image loads and stamp their branding on every image you send.

On Symt, a static map is a cache hit on your own edge — effectively free at any volume, with your brand only.
