Layers

The Layers panel in Maptaskr Power Maps is your central hub for managing all map layers. From this panel, you can add, organise, and interact with layers, giving you full control over how data is displayed and analysed on your map. After adding a layer, a range of options and tools become available to help you filter, visualise, and work with your spatial data.
