Important Notes

  • The option to display Hybrid maps allows for Area maps (except OpenStreetMap) to be displayed on top of High Detail maps.

  • The Prefer on Map option only works between Topo North America and OpenStreetMap. OpenStreetMap is always preferred over Digital Atlas of the Earth, regardless of the toggle state.

  • When OpenStreetMap is selected as the preferred map, the High Detail maps will not be displayed.
