Systems, methods, and computing devices for building, operating and using map systems with signature-based map caches are disclosed. Based on the desired map properties included in a formatted map request, a map signature can be generated. The map signature can be used to access a signature based map cache to determine whether a map with identical map properties has been previously generated and stored in cache or otherwise available for retrieval. If the map signature exists in the map cache, the corresponding map can be delivered to a map client. If the map signature does not exist in the map cache, then a map can be generated or rendered based on the map properties in the map request. Once the map is generated, it can be saved to the map cache along with associated map signature for future retrieval. |
