  • Better customization of the single style thanks to the compatibility with TomTom Map Styler
  • Consistency in using map & traffic display between Web & Mobile SDKs

  • New examples including group of Animations
  • Traffic Incident icons are loaded from the sprite (not as .SVG)

Breaking changes (compared to V5):

  • Limitation in marker customization for traffic incidents. In V6 Map Styler must be used in order to replace the marker/icon in the map to custom one (you have to edit style to replace the icon). See "Custom incident markers and popups" example.
  • Removed TraffiFlowTilesTier and TrafficIncidentTier classes. See "Traffic Layers" example.
  • Removed support for setting maps style with schema.
  • IE11 browser is no longer supported by Web SDK
