Map layers
The map is organized into nine domains drawn from roughly seventy upstream sources. This is the catalog: what each layer draws, and whether it needs an operator key to run at full depth.
Each source is tagged so you know what to expect:
Live Key Opt-in
- Live — runs without an operator key.
- Key — available, and richer once the operator adds a key.
- Opt-in — built in, off by default until enabled.
