This example creates a map with satellite imagery enabled, tilted at 45 degrees.
Read the documentation.
TypeScriptfunction initMap(): void { const map = new google.maps.Map( document.getElementById("map") as HTMLElement, { center: { lat: 40.76, lng: -73.983 }, zoom: 15, mapTypeId: "satellite", } ); map.setTilt(45); } declare global { interface Window { initMap: () => void; } } window.initMap = initMap;Note: Read the guide on using TypeScript and Google Maps.
