Download map tiles within a polygonal area - Swift SDK

The MapTiler SDK for iOS provides a powerful Offline Pack API that allows you to download tiles within a polygonal area defined by a GeoJSON Polygon for use without an active internet connection.

Before you begin, ensure you have followed the iOS Getting Started with Offline Pack API to set up your project and obtain your API key.

Offline Pack for a Polygon (GeoJSON Polygon)
