Layers
Use shape layers to render geographical and custom shapes and imagery layers for displaying imagery tiles from services such as Bing Maps and Google Maps.
Data labels
Map shapes can be annotated with labels. The font style, size, and color properties can be used to change the appearance and feel of the default labels.
Markers
Mark a location using symbols such as pins to show a message at particular coordinates on a map. To highlight a location, customize markers by adding images or any custom shape.
Bubbles
Shapes can have additional information like population density or land area added to them by using bubbles. Based on the underlying data values, they are presented in a variety of sizes and colors.
Legends
A legend is used to provide useful information for interpreting maps’ colors, shapes, and other symbols.
Tooltip
When a user taps the maps elements, a pop-up window containing more details about the shapes, markers, and bubbles appears.
