| | James Killick worked at Apple from 2013 to 2022 on the Maps team and has worked in mapping for the past 40 years. I've been wondering why Apple has gotten so much into Maps; Google makes sense to me, they're just the same ad business as search, but on a map. So, why -and how- did Apple get into Map?

| | Maps are fun, self hosted maps are awesome ! Serving world maps was reserved to big companies like Google, thanks to the OpenStreetMap project, we now have access to an open world of data. Generating Tiles MapBox (and others) worked hard to create a vector format bundled in a SQLite file: mbtiles format. It's vector based as opposed to older raster maps containing 256x256 PNG images. The Openmaptiles folks did a great job automating the map generation.
