As described in the [MapConfig File Format](http://docs.carto.com/carto-engine/maps-api/mapconfig/), a "carto" type layer is now just an alias to a "mapnik" type layer as above, intended for backwards compatibility.

### Caching
It is important to note that generated images are cached from the live data referenced with the `layergroupid token` on the specified Carto account. This means that if the data changes, the cached image will also change. When linking dynamically, it is important to take into consideration the state of the data and longevity of the static image to avoid broken images or changes in how the image is displayed. To obtain a static snapshot of the map as it is today and preserve the image long-term regardless of changes in data, the image must be saved and stored locally.

### Limits
* While images can encompass an entirety of a map, the default limit for pixel range is 8192 x 8192.
* Image resolution by default is set to 72 DPI
* JPEG quality by default is 85%
* Timeout limits for generating static maps are the same across the Carto Editor and Carto Engine. It is important to ensure timely processing of queries.
