JavaScript

async function initMap() {
    const { Map3DElement } = await google.maps.importLibrary("maps3d");
    const map = new Map3DElement({
        center: { lat: 49.75371685807847, lng: -123.13227141171181, altitude: 30 },
        tilt: 50.64793990040634,
        heading: 44.480020261589154,
        range: 51618.36056532338,
        language: "ZH",
        region: "CN",
        mode: 'HYBRID',
        gestureHandling: "COOPERATIVE"
    });
    document.body.append(map);
}
