Shopmap
Lightweight, theme-aware map component with terrain, hypsometric tinting, and procedural hillshading. Zero API keys. Free for commercial use.
Installation
npm install @strata-packages/shopmap
Quickstart
npx @strata-packages/shopmap init
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/maplibre-gl@6/dist/maplibre-gl.css" />
<script src="https://unpkg.com/pmtiles@3/dist/pmtiles.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@strata-packages/shopmap/dist/shopmap.umd.js"></script>
<div id="map" style="width:100%;height:400px"></div>
<script type="module">
// MapLibre GL JS v6+ ships ESM-only — no more global <script src> build.
// Import it and assign the global shopmap's UMD build still expects.
const maplibregl = await import('https://unpkg.com/maplibre-gl@6/dist/maplibre-gl.mjs')
window.maplibregl = maplibregl
const map = new ShopMap.ShopMap('#map', {
location: { lat: 12.9716, lng: 77.5946 },
tiles: 'https://tiles.openfreemap.org/styles/liberty',
pin: { icon: 'store', pulse: true, label: 'Our Shop' },
})
</script>
Using MapLibre GL JS v4 or v5 instead? Those still ship a UMD global build — use
<script src="https://unpkg.com/maplibre-gl@4/dist/maplibre-gl.js"></script>in place of the module block above and drop thewindow.maplibreglassignment; shopmap picks up the global either way.

Terrain
The terrain pipeline uses the open-data Terrarium DEM (AWS elevation tiles, public domain). No API keys. No ESRI. Fully commercial-safe.
map.enableTerrain({
// 3-D mesh
exaggeration: 1.5, // vertical scale for the 3-D mesh (default: 1.5)
// MapLibre hillshade layer
hillshade: true, // render a standard hillshade layer (default: true)
hillshadeIntensity: 0.5, // 0–1 (default: 0.5)
// Hypsometric colour ramp
hypsometric: true, // enable elevation/depth colour tinting (default: false)
hypsometricOpacity: 0.45, // ramp layer opacity 0–1 (default: 0.45)
hypsometricRange: [-6000, 5000], // clamp elevation to this range (metres)
hypsometricStops: [ // colour stops — negative = water depth
{ elevation: -6000, color: '#0a1929' },
{ elevation: -200, color: '#0d3b6e' },
{ elevation: 0, color: '#1a6b8a' },
{ elevation: 1, color: '#4a9e6b' },
{ elevation: 500, color: '#8bc34a' },
{ elevation: 1500, color: '#d4a843' },
{ elevation: 3000, color: '#9e6b3a' },
{ elevation: 5000, color: '#f5f5f5' },
],
// Procedural hillshading — baked into the ramp tiles, no external source needed
hillshadeBlend: 0.7, // 0 = flat colour only, 1 = full shading (default: 0.7)
sunAzimuth: 315, // degrees clockwise from N (default: 315 = NW)
sunAltitude: 45, // degrees above horizon (default: 45)
shadingExaggeration: 1.5, // amplify gentle slope shading (default: 1.5)
// Optional external texture overlay (independent of ramp)
texture: false, // enable texture overlay (default: false)
textureUrl: 'https://tile.opentopomap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', // CC-BY-SA, free
textureOpacity: 0.6, // 0–1 (default: 0.6)
textureMaxzoom: 17, // match the provider's tile ceiling (default: 17)
})
map.disableTerrain()
How the procedural hillshading works
When hillshadeBlend > 0, the protocol handler runs a two-pass algorithm on each 256×256 Terrarium tile:
- Pass 1 — decode all 65,536 pixels into a
Float32Arrayof real elevation values - Pass 2 — for each pixel, compute the surface normal
N = (−∂z/∂x, −∂z/∂y, 1)via central differences, evaluate Lambertian reflectance against the sun direction vector, blend the resulting intensity into the hypsometric colour
The result is a fully procedural shaded-relief + elevation-colour map with zero external tile dependencies beyond the Terrarium DEM.

Feature Textures
Apply surface textures to vector map layers. Procedural fallbacks are always available — no external assets required.
// Procedural textures (built-in FBM noise patterns)
await map.enableFeatureTextures({
buildings: true, // building fill-extrusion layers
roads: true, // transportation line layers
bridges: true, // bridge line layers
})
// Real CC0 photo textures (from polyhaven.com or any CORS-enabled URL)
// Falls back to procedural if the fetch fails
await map.enableFeatureTextures({
buildings: true,
roads: true,
bridges: true,
facadeUrl: 'https://example.com/brick_diff_1k.jpg',
roadUrl: 'https://example.com/asphalt_diff_1k.jpg',
bridgeUrl: 'https://example.com/concrete_diff_1k.jpg',
})
map.disableFeatureTextures()
enableFeatureTextures returns a Promise — await it to know when textures are loaded.
Finding CC0 textures: polyhaven.com/textures provides CC0 (public domain) photographic textures. Search "brick wall" or "concrete" for buildings, "asphalt" for roads, "concrete floor" for bridges. Copy the *_diff_1k.jpg download URL.
Visibility: Road and bridge textures require zoom ≥ 14. Building textures require 3D mode + zoom ≥ 15.
Map Style Switching
// Switch to a different hosted style
map.switchTileStyle('https://tiles.openfreemap.org/styles/bright')
map.switchTileStyle('https://tiles.openfreemap.org/styles/positron')
// Named preset (uses the configured provider)
map.switchStyle('satellite')
map.switchStyle('terrain')
The active theme colours and region overlays are re-applied automatically after the style loads.
