MapHighlight was created to solve a simple problem: generating country maps shouldn't require GIS expertise, complex libraries, or hours of setup.
As developers, we've all been there: you need to display a simple map highlighting specific countries for a dashboard, report, or presentation. What should be a 5-minute task turns into hours of wrestling with heavyweight GIS libraries, managing geospatial data files, and debugging rendering issues.
We built MapHighlight because we believe geographic visualization should be as simple as making an API call. No dependencies, no setup, no complexity—just clean, fast maps when you need them.
To make geographic data visualization accessible to every developer, regardless of their GIS knowledge or technical background.
Sub-500ms response times globally. Your users shouldn't wait for maps to load.
One API endpoint, intuitive parameters. No documentation marathons required.
99.9% uptime SLA. Your maps are always available when you need them.
Built by developers, for developers. We understand your workflow.
MapHighlight began as an internal tool. While building analytics dashboards, we found ourselves repeatedly implementing the same map generation logic across projects. Each time meant managing geospatial libraries, handling coordinate systems, and optimizing rendering performance.
We realized this was a universal problem. Developers everywhere were duplicating the same work, fighting the same battles with GIS complexity. So we extracted our solution, refined it, and turned it into a service anyone could use.
Today, MapHighlight powers maps for analytics platforms, travel applications, news organizations, and SaaS products around the world.
MapHighlight runs on a globally distributed infrastructure designed for speed and reliability:
We take data protection seriously. MapHighlight is built and operated in compliance with GDPR and other international data protection regulations.
We're committed to maintaining MapHighlight as a reliable, developer-friendly service for the long term. That means:
