# Map

A view that displays an embedded map interface.

## Declaration

```swift
@MainActor @preconcurrency struct Map<Content> where Content : View
```

## Overview

Overview Use this SwiftUI view to display a Map with markers, annotations, and custom content you provide. You can configure the Map to optionally display the user’s location, track a location, and display various controls to allow them to interact with and control the map’s display. The following example displays a map of downtown San Francisco that shows different markers, and an annotation with custom view content at specific locations:     struct ContentView: View {         var body: some View {             Map {                 Marker("San Francisco City Hall", coordinate: cityHallLocation)                     .tint(.orange)                 Marker("San Francisco Public Library", coordinate: publicLibraryLocation)                     .tint(.blue)                 Annotation("Diller Civic Center Playground", coordinate: playgroundLocation) {                     ZStack {                         RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 5)                             .fill(Color.yellow)                         Text("🛝")                             .padding(5)                     }                 }             }             .mapControlVisibility(.hidden)         }     } You create markers, annotations, and overlays using MapContentBuilder with any of several MapContent types including: Annotation UserAnnotation Marker MapCircle MapPolygon MapPolyline You can also add a variety of controls to allow a person to interact with the map to change the map’s scale, display or hide the device’s current location, and so on: MapCompass MapPitchButton MapPitchSlider MapScaleView MapUserLocationButton MapZoomStepper
