Select map type

Click to select the map type of interest.

The Standard map includes a background map, labels, administrative borders and roads, all in one single map layer. There is also a light version of the standard map with less details available.

The Basic map is the same map background as the one used in the standard map, but without the labels, borders and roads. This is used when you want to build up your own map with separate layers that can be hidden individually.

Borders only contains the administrative borders.

Labels only contains labels (such as continent names, countries and cities).

Roads only contains roads.

Note that some features will not be seen until you reach a certain zoom level.
