Is it possible to add and sync points on a map + numbered markers via mapbox? For example if I wanted to have 20 map points in San Francisco with markers labeled 1-20 and then another 20 map points in the East Bay with markers labeled 1-20 would that be possible to add and sync via a google doc? or would I need to manually enter those points?
Have a look at this REST API: https://www.mapbox.com/developers/api/static/#markers
You could write a script that pulls info from the Google spreadsheet and adds markers using that API.

Currently I am using Selenium and Folium to download OpenStreetMap maps... The issue I am encountering now is that, for my next assignment, I have to download 5 million images, and my current Python script is too slow. Having that one running in the background for hours on my laptop is not really an option.
Currently, my script opens the browser, saves the screen and extracts the nxn pixels image I need.
Does anybody know of a smarter way of extracting maps from OpenStreetMap?
Currently, I have a CSV list of 5'ish million x & y coordinates of points, and I need to download a map for each one of these in png-format... How should I proceed?
I hope you are not downloading from openstreetmap.org tile servers, because this is strictly discouraged as you can see on https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/ under "Bulk Downloading".
It might make sense for you to setup an own tileserver or subscribe to some tile-server service. There are static map services, which allow you to download the combined map image of an area, see
https://justmarkup.com/articles/2014-05-27-overview-of-static-map-solutions/#openstreetmap
for example.
This mentions Mapquest and Mapbox.
I am trying to replace the default location points and addresses with my own points and addresses. I have uploaded a geojson with parcel centroid points, address, and assessor parcel number. I would like to display this information when the user clicks on an address. Is this possible?
geojson upload
You can follow this add points to a web map tutorial series to achieve the functionality you are looking for. Since it sounds like you have already uploaded your data to Mapbox as a dataset or tileset, the next steps will be to create a style and then add interactivity by displaying popups containing the desired information when clicked.
I have created a project in mapbox. I have multiple layers of point, lines and polygon features, which are uploaded through its online uploading facility of .mbtiles. Mapbox project only support 15 layers, whereas I have multiple layers more than 15 to upload, and now I want to combine multiple layers.
While searching I've found this help from mapbox "Each MBTiles file you upload to Mapbox can be up to 5GB. Larger projects can be uploaded by splitting the export up into multiple smaller MBTiles files. Once uploaded, you can combine them together with the project editor. This just refers to the transfer limit and should not be confused with your storage limit."
In Mapbox Project Editor I have not find any layer combine facility ... Please help me
The combination referenced in the help refers to adding the layers individually with the data manager. 15 is the limit so you may have to combine layers in TileMill.
We have a map with Ski runs
I want to extract them into a KML file and then import them into Google Earth, so I can use it on my ski holiday.
Is it possible? The importing part is easy, but don't know how to get them.
my client prepared google map with points on. Now he wants that points on map in iPhone app. Is there way to export points from map prepared by him ?
If your client prepared the map in Google Maps, then he can use the "KML" link in his Google Map to download a file with all his data points in it, in KML format.
Did he use javascript to prepare the points and can you get that? If so, use the source.
Did he use maps.google.com to prepare it by dropping points on that? If so, click the URL button and you'll should see the points embedded in the URL, at least that is true for driving directions.
