The Map management section is available only in the CMS Manager and for top accounts. In this section, you can add, edit, and delete maps. A standard table contains all the added maps that can be used as basemap, routing source, geodata source, and distance matrix. The available services of the map are marked with the icon

When adding a map, you should specify the name of the service with which you can control access to the map and its services. Thus, the top account user can enable or disable this service in the properties of the required billing plans or subordinate accounts. See more about other map settings.
