Mapzen Alternative – Build your own server
Mapzen tools help developers build wonderful interactive maps and equip them with search and routing services. This shut down created some serious issues for Mapzen user. Which includes many app developers, civic organisations and some government agencies etc. but here’s how everyone got saved.
