Use of MapKit on my submission

Hi everyone! I'm working on an app to submit to the Swift Student Challenge this year and wanted to get some feedback on my plan to use MapKit.

I know Apple is pretty open to using any of their frameworks for the contest. But I wanted to see if anyone had insights on whether my use of MapKit would comply with the contest rules and eligibility criteria.

Any thoughts or advice you have on properly leveraging MapKit for my submission would be much appreciated! I want to make sure I avoid any issues since this framework is so integral to my app idea. Let me know if you have built a map-based app for Swift Student Challenge before as well. Thanks!

If you need to have a network connection (maps not stored in your app), that is not allowed.

Your creation should not rely on a network connection and any resources used in your app playground should be included locally in the ZIP file. Submissions will be judged offline.
