Styled Map Types

This example creates a new map type, which the user can select from the map type control. The map type includes custom styles.

Read the documentation.

TypeScript

function initMap(): void {
  // Create a new StyledMapType object, passing it an array of styles,
  // and the name to be displayed on the map type control.
