Select features around a clicked point
Click on the map to query features using queryRenderedFeatures.
Use a custom tileset
This example uses U.S. county data uploaded to Mapbox as a vector tileset. This data is not updated or maintained and should not be used in production applications. If you're interested in creating an application that uses U.S. county data, you can download a Shapefile from census.gov's data portal or create your own from US FIPS / county data and upload it to Mapbox Studio's Tilesets page.
