L.Map

Map

The central class of the API — it is used to create a map on a page and manipulate it.

Usage example

// initialize the map on the "map" div with a given center and zoom
var map = L.map('map', {
    center: [51.505, -0.09],
    zoom: 13
});

Creation

Factory	Description
`L.map(<String> id, <Map options> options?)`	Instantiates a map object given the DOM ID of a `<div>` element and optionally an object literal with `Map options`.
`L.map(<HTMLElement> el, <Map options> options?)`	Instantiates a map object given an instance of a `<div>` HTML element and optionally an object literal with `Map options`.

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`preferCanvas`	`Boolean`	`false`	Whether `Path`s should be rendered on a `Canvas` renderer. By default, all `Path`s are rendered in a `SVG` renderer.

Control options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`attributionControl`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether a attribution control is added to the map by default.
`zoomControl`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether a zoom control is added to the map by default.

Interaction Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`closePopupOnClick`	`Boolean`	`true`	Set it to `false` if you don't want popups to close when user clicks the map.
`zoomSnap`	`Number`	`1`	Forces the map's zoom level to always be a multiple of this, particularly right after a `fitBounds()` or a pinch-zoom. By default, the zoom level snaps to the nearest integer; lower values (e.g. `0.5` or `0.1`) allow for greater granularity. A value of `0` means the zoom level will not be snapped after `fitBounds` or a pinch-zoom.
`zoomDelta`	`Number`	`1`	Controls how much the map's zoom level will change after a `zoomIn()`, `zoomOut()`, pressing `+` or `-` on the keyboard, or using the zoom controls. Values smaller than `1` (e.g. `0.5`) allow for greater granularity.
`trackResize`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether the map automatically handles browser window resize to update itself.
`boxZoom`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether the map can be zoomed to a rectangular area specified by dragging the mouse while pressing the shift key.
`doubleClickZoom`	`Boolean\|String`	`true`	Whether the map can be zoomed in by double clicking on it and zoomed out by double clicking while holding shift. If passed `'center'`, double-click zoom will zoom to the center of the view regardless of where the mouse was.
`dragging`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether the map is draggable with mouse/touch or not.

Map State Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`crs`	`CRS`	`L.CRS.EPSG3857`	The Coordinate Reference System to use. Don't change this if you're not sure what it means.
`center`	`LatLng`	`undefined`	Initial geographic center of the map
`zoom`	`Number`	`undefined`	Initial map zoom level
`minZoom`	`Number`	`undefined`	Minimum zoom level of the map. Overrides any `minZoom` option set on map layers.
`maxZoom`	`Number`	`undefined`	Maximum zoom level of the map. Overrides any `maxZoom` option set on map layers.
`layers`	`Layer[]`	`[]`	Array of layers that will be added to the map initially
`maxBounds`	`LatLngBounds`	`null`	When this option is set, the map restricts the view to the given geographical bounds, bouncing the user back when they try to pan outside the view. To set the restriction dynamically, use `setMaxBounds` method.
`renderer`	`Renderer`	`*`	The default method for drawing vector layers on the map. `L.SVG` or `L.Canvas` by default depending on browser support.

Animation Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`fadeAnimation`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether the tile fade animation is enabled. By default it's enabled in all browsers that support CSS3 Transitions except Android.
`markerZoomAnimation`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether markers animate their zoom with the zoom animation, if disabled they will disappear for the length of the animation. By default it's enabled in all browsers that support CSS3 Transitions except Android.
`transform3DLimit`	`Number`	`2^23`	Defines the maximum size of a CSS translation transform. The default value should not be changed unless a web browser positions layers in the wrong place after doing a large `panBy`.
`zoomAnimation`	`Boolean`	`true`	Whether the map zoom animation is enabled. By default it's enabled in all browsers that support CSS3 Transitions except Android.
`zoomAnimationThreshold`	`Number`	`4`	Won't animate zoom if the zoom difference exceeds this value.

Panning Inertia Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`inertia`	`Boolean`	`*`	If enabled, panning of the map will have an inertia effect where the map builds momentum while dragging and continues moving in the same direction for some time. Feels especially nice on touch devices. Enabled by default unless running on old Android devices.
`inertiaDeceleration`	`Number`	`3000`	The rate with which the inertial movement slows down, in pixels/second².
`inertiaMaxSpeed`	`Number`	`Infinity`	Max speed of the inertial movement, in pixels/second.
`easeLinearity`	`Number`	`0.2`
`worldCopyJump`	`Boolean`	`false`	With this option enabled, the map tracks when you pan to another "copy" of the world and seamlessly jumps to the original one so that all overlays like markers and vector layers are still visible.
`maxBoundsViscosity`	`Number`	`0.0`	If `maxBounds` is set, this option will control how solid the bounds are when dragging the map around. The default value of `0.0` allows the user to drag outside the bounds at normal speed, higher values will slow down map dragging outside bounds, and `1.0` makes the bounds fully solid, preventing the user from dragging outside the bounds.

Option	Type	Default	Description
`keyboard`	`Boolean`	`true`	Makes the map focusable and allows users to navigate the map with keyboard arrows and `+`/`-` keys.
`keyboardPanDelta`	`Number`	`80`	Amount of pixels to pan when pressing an arrow key.

`wheelPxPerZoomLevel`	`Number`	`60`	How many scroll pixels (as reported by L.DomEvent.getWheelDelta) mean a change of one full zoom level. Smaller values will make wheel-zooming faster (and vice versa).

Touch interaction options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`tap`	`Boolean`	`true`	Enables mobile hacks for supporting instant taps (fixing 200ms click delay on iOS/Android) and touch holds (fired as `contextmenu` events).
`tapTolerance`	`Number`	`15`	The max number of pixels a user can shift their finger during touch for it to be considered a valid tap.
`touchZoom`	`Boolean\|String`	`*`	Whether the map can be zoomed by touch-dragging with two fingers. If passed `'center'`, it will zoom to the center of the view regardless of where the touch events (fingers) were. Enabled for touch-capable web browsers except for old Androids.
`bounceAtZoomLimits`	`Boolean`	`true`	Set it to false if you don't want the map to zoom beyond min/max zoom and then bounce back when pinch-zooming.

Geolocation methods

Method	Returns	Description
`locate(<Locate options> options?)`	`this`	Tries to locate the user using the Geolocation API, firing a `locationfound` event with location data on success or a `locationerror` event on failure, and optionally sets the map view to the user's location with respect to detection accuracy (or to the world view if geolocation failed). Note that, if your page doesn't use HTTPS, this method will fail in modern browsers (Chrome 50 and newer) See `Locate options` for more details.
`stopLocate()`	`this`	Stops watching location previously initiated by `map.locate({watch: true})` and aborts resetting the map view if map.locate was called with `{setView: true}`.

▶ Methods inherited from Evented

Method	Returns	Description
`on(<String> type, <Function> fn, <Object> context?)`	`this`	Adds a listener function (`fn`) to a particular event type of the object. You can optionally specify the context of the listener (object the this keyword will point to). You can also pass several space-separated types (e.g. `'click dblclick'`).

`removeEventParent(<Evented> obj)`	`this`	Removes an event parent, so it will stop receiving propagated events
`addEventListener(…)`	`this`	Alias to `on(…)`
