OpenFreeMap is a free and open-source vector map tile hosting solution for websites and apps, built on OpenStreetMap data with MapLibre-compatible styles. It can be consumed via a free public instance with no API keys, registration, or usage limits, or fully self-hosted using the included production setup with weekly full-planet downloads.
Use cases
- display openstreetmap basemaps on my website for free
- add maps to a web app without api keys or usage limits
- self-host a vector tile server for openstreetmap data
- find a free alternative to mapbox or maptiler for map hosting
- serve maplibre-gl vector tiles with custom styles
- download full planet mbtiles for my own map infrastructure
- avoid per-view map tile billing for a high-traffic site
When to choose
- You need a production-quality MapLibre/Mapbox-style vector basemap with no API keys, registration, cookies, or view limits
- You want to self-host complete OpenStreetMap tile infrastructure, including weekly planet-wide tile generation and updates
- You need custom map styles for websites or apps and want the full production setup to be open source, not open-core
When to avoid
- You need geocoding, place search, routing, navigation, or directions - the project explicitly does not provide these
- You need static map image generation or raster tile serving
- You require a commercial SLA or guaranteed uptime from a vendor rather than a donation-funded public instance
