Issue with Loading Map Data from Mapviz Due to Bing Maps API Key Unavailability #93

Closed jkoubs closed 1 month ago

jkoubs commented 1 month ago

I'm having some issues with getting the map data from mapviz. The map does not load because I can't get a Bing Maps API key to display satellite pictures. Microsoft is no longer accepting new Bing Maps for Enterprise customers as of June 30, 2024 (details here: Microsoft Bing Maps Discontinued Services).

Is there an alternative way to access this map data or a recommended workaround for this issue? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

You can use offline Google Maps instead. I used this one, and it works fine with MapViz.
