Apart from the OpenStreetMap and Bing Maps, you can also render the maps from other map service provided by specifying layerType as OSM and the URL generated by map provider in the URLTemplate property. Here, Google maps is rendered. This provides customizable maps with your own content and imagery.
Refer to Google maps licensing.

}You can zoom and pan the Google maps layer. Zooming helps you get a closer look at a particular area on a map for in-depth analysis. Panning helps you to move a map around to focus the targeted area.

</ejs-maps>Markers can be added to the layers of Google maps by setting the corresponding location’s coordinates of latitude and longitude using markerSettings property. You can add navigation lines on top of an Google maps layer for highlighting a path among various places by setting the corresponding location’s coordinates of latitude and longitude in the navigationLineSettings property.
