Mapbox Style Patterns Skill

This skill provides battle-tested style patterns and layer configurations for common mapping scenarios.

Pattern Library

Pattern 1: Restaurant/POI Finder

Use case: Consumer app showing restaurants, cafes, bars, or other points of interest

Visual requirements:

  • POIs must be immediately visible
  • Street context for navigation
  • Neutral background (photos/content overlay)
  • Mobile-optimized

Recommended layers:

{
  "layers": [
    {
      "id": "background",
      "type": "background",
      "paint": {
        "background-color": "#f5f5f5"
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "water",
      "type": "fill",
      "source": "mapbox-streets",
      "source-layer": "water",
      "paint": {
        "fill-color": "#d4e4f7",
        "fill-opacity": 0.6
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "landuse-parks",
      "type": "fill",
      "source": "mapbox-streets",
      "source-layer": "landuse",
      "filter": ["==", "class", "park"],
      "paint": {
        "fill-color": "#e8f5e8",
        "fill-opacity": 0.5
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "roads-minor",
      "type": "line",
      "source": "mapbox-streets",
      "source-layer": "road",
      "filter": ["in", "class", "street", "street_limited"],
      "paint": {
        "line-color": "#e0e0e0",
        "line-width": {
          "base": 1.5,
          "stops": [
            [12, 0.5],
            [15, 2],
            [18, 6]
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "roads-major",
      "type": "line",
      "source": "mapbox-streets",
      "source-layer": "road",
      "filter": ["in", "class", "primary", "secondary", "tertiary"],
      "paint": {
        "line-color": "#ffffff",
        "line-width": {
          "base": 1.5,
          "stops": [
            [10, 1],
            [15, 4],
            [18, 12]
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "restaurant-markers",
      "type": "symbol",
      "source": "restaurants",
      "layout": {
        "icon-image": "restaurant-15",
        "icon-size": 1.5,
        "icon-allow-overlap": false,
        "text-field": ["get", "name"],

        "text-halo-color": "#ffffff",
        "text-halo-width": 2
      }
    }
  ]
}

Key features:

          ]
        },
        "line-opacity": 0.5
      }
    },
    {
      "id": "place-labels-major",
      "type": "symbol",
      "source": "mapbox-streets",
      "source-layer": "place_label",
      "filter": ["in", "type", "city", "capital"],
      "layout": {
        "text-field": ["get", "name"],
        "text-size": {
          "base": 1,
          "stops": [
            [4, 10],

Key features:

  • Color-coded delivery zones (green=available, orange=busy, red=unavailable)
  • Real-time driver markers with status colors
  • Pulsing customer location indicator
  • Active route with completed progress shown in different color
  • Delivery radius visualization with dashed border
  • ETA badges on driver markers
  • Direction arrows showing driver heading
  • Restaurant/pickup locations clearly marked
  • Shadow effects on driver markers for depth

Load custom arrow icon:

// Load custom arrow icon for driver direction indicator
// Note: 'arrow' is not a standard Maki icon and must be loaded manually
map.on('load', () => {
  map.loadImage('path/to/arrow-icon.png', (error, image) => {
    if (error) throw error;
    map.addImage('arrow', image);
  });
});

Real-time update pattern:

// Update driver location (call on GPS update)
map.getSource('driver-locations').setData({
  type: 'FeatureCollection',
  features: drivers.map((driver) => ({
    type: 'Feature',
    geometry: {
      type: 'Point',
      coordinates: driver.location
    },
    properties: {
      id: driver.id,
      status: driver.status,
      bearing: driver.bearing,
      eta: driver.eta
    }
  }))
});

// Animate route progress
function updateRouteProgress(completedCoordinates) {
  map.getSource('route-progress').setData({
    type: 'Feature',
    geometry: {
      type: 'LineString',
      coordinates: completedCoordinates
    }
  });
}

// Pulse animation for active delivery
function pulseCustomerMarker() {
  const duration = 2000;
  const start = performance.now();

  function animate(time) {
    const elapsed = time - start;
    const phase = (elapsed % duration) / duration;

    // Update radius (12 to 24 pixels)
    map.setPaintProperty('customer-pulse', 'circle-radius', 12 + phase * 12);

    // Update opacity (fade from 0.3 to 0)
    map.setPaintProperty('customer-pulse', 'circle-opacity', 0.3 * (1 - phase));

    requestAnimationFrame(animate);
  }

  requestAnimationFrame(animate);
}

Performance tips:

  • Update driver positions every 3-5 seconds (not every GPS ping)
  • Use setData() instead of removing/re-adding sources
  • Limit visible drivers to current viewport + buffer
  • Debounce rapid updates during high activity
  • Use symbol layers instead of HTML markers for 50+ drivers

Pattern Selection Guide

Decision Tree

Question 1: What is the primary content?

  • User-generated markers/pins → POI Finder Pattern
  • Property data/boundaries → Real Estate Pattern
  • Statistical/analytical data → Data Visualization Pattern
  • Routes/directions → Navigation Pattern
  • Real-time tracking/delivery zones → Delivery/Logistics Pattern

Question 2: What is the viewing environment?

  • Daytime/office → Light theme
  • Night/dark environment → Dark Mode Pattern
  • Variable → Provide theme toggle

Question 3: What is the user’s primary action?

  • Browse/explore → Focus on POIs, rich detail
  • Navigate → Focus on roads, route visibility
  • Track delivery/logistics → Real-time updates, zones, status
  • Analyze data → Minimize base map, maximize data
  • Select location → Clear boundaries, context

Question 4: What is the platform?

  • Mobile → Simplified, larger touch targets, less detail
  • Desktop → Can include more detail and complexity
  • Both → Design mobile-first, enhance for desktop
