## Can I use my custom Base Map in other GIS tools like QGIS or ArcGIS?

The [recommended raster tile server](/docs/start/) supports other
GIS clients and also supports WMTS. You can therefore use the rendered raster tiles
from our vector tiles in QGIS, ArcGIS, uDig and also different web mapping libraries
like Google Maps, Leaflet, Open Layers, MapBox JS and ArcGIS JavaScript API.

Support for styling vector tiles in the Mapbox Vector Tile Specification is built
into Mapbox Studio and Mapbox Studio Classic.

vector tiles. Map libraries like Mapbox GL JS and Open Layers also support

Our Open Streets tiles should be usable also in native applications on Android and iOS which uses MapBox Vector Tile specification.

## What is the difference from other Projects like Kartotherian or Mapzen Vector Tiles?
We are big fans of Kartotherian and Mapzen but believe not only the process to produce vector tiles

These projects provide public vector tile servers as well but do not provide any downloads.

We are looking forward to contribute back to projects like Kartotherian with our improved
source project and mapping files.
