How to display a MKMapView without street names?

Question

I need to display a map without street names. is it possible using MKMapView ? if not, is there a different map API for iOs that supports this?

What you need to do, is to set the maptype to Satellite.

Here's how to do this:

[mapView setMapType:MKMapTypeSatellite];

EDIT: Not sure if it's satellite, but try one of these:

[mapView setMapType:MKMapTypeStandard];
[mapView setMapType:MKMapTypeHybrid];
[mapView setMapType:MKMapTypeSatellite];
