                        Provides an easy way to change the satellite images displayed in Google My Map and Waze Map Editor. There's several international maps available and some country specific (Romania, Poland, Check Republic).

Supported sites:
• waze.com/editor
• google.com/mymaps

There is a shortcut, default Alt+L, to switch between the default layer and selected layer. You can change the keybinding in the chrome settings chrome://extensions/shortcuts

Do not use layers for editing the maps unless you comply with the terms of use specific to each layer provider.
