Viewing map layers
Initially, Google Maps opens with a street map. You can view additional map layers, such as
satellite images, traffic information, your Google Latitude friends’ locations, and Wikipedia
information on locations. You can also view maps that you and other people have created in
Google Maps on the web.
Multiple layers can be viewed at the same time.
Not all locations have information to support all Map layers or all zoom levels. To learn more about
layers, visit Google Maps on the web:
http://maps.google.com/
While viewing a map, press MENU, and then tap Layers.
Select any of the following.
Traffic (available only in selected areas). Real-time traffic conditions are displayed over
roads as color-coded lines. Each color represents how fast the traffic is moving.
Satellite. Google Maps uses the same satellite data as Google Earth™. Satellite images
are not real-time. Google Earth acquires the best imagery available, most of which is
approximately one to three years old.
Latitude. When you have joined Latitude, you can view your friends’ locations as a layer
on the map. For information, see “Finding your friends with Google Latitude (available
by country)” in this chapter.
To select more layers such as transit lines or maps that you have created in Google
Maps on the web, tap More layers.
To clear layers and view only the street map, tap Clear map.
