Our Somerville, MA map is part of the HTML5 City/Neighborhoods Map license that we sell. We've overlayed neighborhood boundaries over a minimalistic vector map of Somerville* showing major roads, parks, bodies of water and more.
Our JavaScript-based maps are zoomable, clickable, responsive, and easy to customize using our online tool. Easily add labels, change neighborhood colors, or add location markers.
Your map purchase includes the GIS source files for the neighborhood boundaries in both Shapefile (.shp) and GeoJSON (.json) formats. We've also included the neighborhoods as a static SVG file. The background map features are made available via a .pmtiles archive that we host on our CDN or you can download to fully self-host this map.
