This package is in an early development stage. You should expect things to break unannounced until we release a version 1.0.0.

You can use altair_tiles to add tiles from any xyz tile provider such as OpenStreetMap to your Altair chart. It is a counterpart to the amazing contextily package which provides this functionality for matplotlib.

You can find the documentation here. For a general introduction to plotting geographic data with Altair, see Geoshape - Vega-Altair and Specifying Data - Vega-Altair.

pip install altair_tiles

or

conda install -c conda-forge altair_tiles

altair-tiles requires at least Vega version 5.26.0. If you use an IDE such as a Jupyter Notebook or VS Code, you usually don't have to worry about this.

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e '.[dev]'
