Satellite and Aerial Imagery

After you have Setup an Interactive Map, you can now add a satellite and aerial view for better context.

Subscription

Aerial imagery is part of our Everything API, which is only available under our Pro Plan subscription.

You must have the Everything Api service enabled on your api key's settings page.

Pro Subscription Required

Pricing

Aerial imagery is 1 Credit per Aerial Map Tile, in addition to any underlying Vector or Raster Map Tiles loaded beneath the Aerial layer.

Coverage

Satellite imagery is available worldwide, but Aerial imagery is only available in the United States. Using Slpy JS will automatically hide the option when the map view is on an unsupported area.

For those configuring maps with Slpy JS, adding the function line below will automatically configure styles and an icon will appear and disappear if coverage is available.

Vector + Satellite

You can layer vector tiles over the unlabeled map to get a hybrid map. See our Slpy JS code for an idea of styling changes to display a vector map over the aerial.
