A Mapbox GL JS plugin that adds drawing and editing controls for geographic features (points, lines, polygons) directly on interactive web maps. It provides customizable draw modes and integrates as a map control.
Use cases
- let users draw polygons on a map to define an area of interest
- add drawing tools to a mapbox-gl-js application
- allow editing and deleting map features interactively
- measure area of a user-drawn polygon
- collect geofence boundaries from end users
- sketch routes or lines on a web map
When to choose
- you are building with mapbox-gl-js and need interactive feature drawing or editing
- you want a battle-tested plugin with custom mode support for advanced draw interactions
When to avoid
- you use Leaflet, OpenLayers, or another non-Mapbox map library
- you only need static map display without user drawing
- you need a standalone drawing canvas unrelated to maps
