Tile Layers

Tile layers are components used in mapping or web applications to display specific sets of data, such as streets, terrain, or satellite images. Think of them as different transparent sheets stacked on top of each other, each showing a different type of map detail. When combined, they create a comprehensive view. Tile layers load small, grid-like pieces called tiles, which ensures fast rendering and smooth interaction. Developers can switch or overlay these layers to customize the map display, providing users with relevant information based on their needs, like navigation, weather, or geographical features.
