With the release of Mapbox V11, we are migrating the V4 SDK to use Mapbox v11 to make use of the new features offered by Mapbox. As this version bump can include breaking changes for your implementation. We will still be maintaining a V10 based SDK. This will retain the maven naming as of now. Where Mapbox V11 will move to:
For the migration of your Mapbox code implementation read the Mapbox guide here:
While no breaking changes are introduced from the Mapsindoors SDK. Some visual changes are introduced with the use of Mapbox V11.
With Mapbox V11 they have introduced a new map style. That is being used by the Mapsindoors SDK. This includes new 3D visuals on the map, like extruded buildings, 3D landmarks, Trees etc. Giving a great aesthetic experience.
With this, if you are using the Mapsindoors default style this will be a part of your map. We have introduced a Mapsindoors transition level, that enable/disable the extruded buildings and Mapbox POI's to not clash with the Mapsindoors data. This is based on zoom level, and is by default 17. It can be configured through the MPMapConfig.
With the Mapbox V11 release, android also supports rendering 3D models on your map. Read more about this:
With 4.5.0 you can now also hide specific features, allowing you to toggle between 2d and 3d.
You can read about that feature here: Enabling and Disabling features on the map
