Ola Maps Satellite Maps

What are Satellite Maps?

Satellite Maps provide satellite imagery that overlays seamlessly on top of our existing map assets including POIs, roads, and other geographic features. These maps add real-world context by combining satellite imagery with useful map overlays, creating rich visualizations for a wide range of applications. The imagery contains modified Copernicus Sentinel-2 data (2024).

Why use Satellite Maps

Satellite Maps bridge the gap between abstract map representations and real-world visualization. By combining satellite imagery with our detailed map assets, users can see actual landscapes, buildings while still having access to essential navigation elements like roads and points of interest. Some of the use-cases for Satellite Maps can be :

Real Estate and Property Visualization
Urban Planning and Development
Environmental Monitoring
Tourism and Location Discovery
Agriculture and Land Management
Emergency Response and Disaster Management

How to integrate Ola Satellite Maps

You can add Satellite Maps to your web application using our satellite style.json endpoint. This style automatically combines satellite imagery with our detailed map data.

To get started with Satellite Maps, simply initialize your map with our satellite style URL:

const myMap = olaMaps.init({
  style: "https://api.olamaps.io/tiles/vector/v1/styles/default-dark-standard-satellite/style.json",
  container: 'map',
  center: [77.61648476788898, 12.931423492103944],
  zoom: 15,
})

By using the satellite style endpoint, you automatically get access to satellite imagery overlaid with essential map elements like roads, POIs, and labels, providing users with both visual context and navigational information.
