thanks so much for the info dump. And good stuff!
afaik OpenStreetMaps (OSM) offers offline and is well open/free in free beer and spirit. Part of the RFC imo should validate deck.gl decency with OSM for at least what we know would need, highlight imitations, and some idea of what it could take to fork deck.gl integrating capabilities and just improve them for first class OSM support, again for what we want to do.
Mapping Libraries
There a few good options. The standards include: LeafletJS, the OG. DeckGL, the cool new upstart on the block & Mapbox, the corporate monolith đ . There are also a few other cool standouts we could explore, such as DataMaps for simpler SVG Maps.
