Azure Maps is yet another online Maps provider, owned by Microsoft. As like OSM and Bing Maps, it provides Maps tile images based on our requests and combines those images into a single one to display Maps area.
The Azure Maps can be rendered using the urlTemplate property with the tile server URL provided by online map providers. In the meantime, a subscription key is required for Azure Maps. Follow the steps in this link to generate an API key, and then added the key to the URL.
Refer to Azure Maps Licensing.
