This tutorial demonstrates how to implement a layer control (layer switcher) in your map application. The layer control provides a user interface for managing and toggling different map layers, allowing users to customize their map view according to their needs.
You'll learn how to:
- Enable the built-in layer switcher control
- Allow users to toggle visibility of different map layers
- Organize layers into categories for easier management
- Provide a user-friendly interface for layer selection
The layer control is essential for applications that use multiple data layers, allowing users to focus on specific information by showing only the layers relevant to their current task. This improves map readability and enhances the overall user experience.
