Add a map to desktop GIS
Most desktop GIS software can load a MapTiler map as WMTS or as XYZ tiles. You’ll find both URLs in the Share dialog under Use map in other ways. WMTS is available on paid plans.
QGIS
- MapTiler QGIS plugin: the simplest option. It adds MapTiler maps to QGIS directly. See how to add and print maps with MapTiler QGIS plugin.
- WMTS: see WMTS in QGIS.
- XYZ tiles:
- In the Browser panel, right-click XYZ Tiles and select New Connection.
- Enter a name, paste the XYZ tiles URL into URL, and click OK.
- Double-click the new connection to add it to your map.
ArcGIS Pro
Use WMTS. See WMTS in ArcGIS Pro.
Other GIS software
Any GIS software that supports WMTS or XYZ tiles can load MapTiler maps. Look for the option to add a WMTS or XYZ tile layer, then paste the URL from the sharing dialog.
