Web maps using Mapbox GL JS v1.0.0 and higher are billed by Map Loads for Web. Beginning with Mapbox GL JS v2.0.0, a map load occurs whenever a Mapbox GL JS Map object is initialized. Measuring usage by map loads means that users interacting with your web map can toggle layers on and off, zoom and pan around the map, and toggle between styles without affecting your usage. You can also add vector or raster sources to your map at runtime without incurring additional charges. The maximum session length for a map load is 12 hours. If a user has the same map open after 12 hours, Mapbox will count that as a new map load session.
