Add a "satellite map" layer and a switcher button

loganwilliams opened this issue · comments

Add an option to switch the basemap tiles to a satellite/aerial view from Mapbox tiles (Historic, not current imagery.)

This issue requires:

  1. Creating a new component for a map switcher that changes the active map layers in Leaflet.

This would be a candidate for PR-ing upstream to the core timemap repo, also.

I'm happy to take a stab at this one. I'm thinking of showing a simple component overlaid on the map, which dispatches an action to change the ui.tiles state.

@loganwilliams @msramalho I've opened PR #12 for this issue :-)
