Abstract
First map data is generated in a vector format for displaying a first map image at a client device. The first map image corresponds to a perspective of a camera panned to a certain location at a certain zoom level. The first map data is provided to the client device via a communication network. Modification data is generated at a map server in a vector format, the modification data specifying a difference between the first map data and a second map data, where the second map data is for displaying a second map image corresponding to the same perspective of the camera panned to the same location at the same zoom level. The modification data is provided to the client device via the communication network for generating the second map image using the first map data and the modification data.
