I'm trying to make a styled google map with just the Boston subway lines, land, and water. I set the visibility of everything to off, but some buildings are still showing up, and it looks like its only buildings with indoor maps.
Here is my code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var lat = 42.3581;
var long = -71.0636;
google.maps.visualRefresh = true;
function initialize()
{
var mapStyle =
[
{
featureType: 'administrative',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'landscape',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'poi',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'road',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'transit',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'water',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'landscape',
elementType: 'geometry',
stylers:
[
{ color: '#ffffff' },
{ visibility: 'on' }
]
},
{
featureType: 'water',
elementType: 'geometry',
stylers:
[
{ color: '#e5e5e5' },
{ visibility: 'on' }
]
}
];
var mapOptions =
{
center: new google.maps.LatLng(lat, long),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
zoom: 16,
backgroundColor: '#ffffff',
streetViewControl: false,
mapTypeControl: false,
panControl: false,
zoomControl: false,
scrollwheel: true,
draggable: true
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map-canvas"), mapOptions);
var transitLayer = new google.maps.TransitLayer();
transitLayer.setMap(map);
var styledMapOptions = {name: 'Map'};
var newMapType = new google.maps.StyledMapType(mapStyle, styledMapOptions);
map.mapTypes.set('stylized', newMapType);
map.setMapTypeId('stylized');
onResize();
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
function onResize()
{
document.getElementById("map-canvas").style.height = window.innerHeight - document.getElementById("map-canvas").getBoundingClientRect().top + 24 +"px";
}
</script>
</head>
<body onResize="onResize()">
<div id="map-canvas"/>
</body>
</html>
I also tried this, which worked but it turned my transit layer off too, and I need the transit layer for the colored subway lines:
featureType: 'all',
elementType: 'all',
stylers:
[
{ visibility: 'off' }
]

The only way I found to achive this, is to disable everything and then putting each major style section back to visible afterwards in the styles json.
You can use the following as a reset styles json to remove indoor maps
[
{"stylers": [ {"visibility": "off" } ] },
{"featureType": "water","stylers": [{"visibility": "on"} ] },
{"featureType": "poi","stylers": [ {"visibility": "on"} ]},
{"featureType": "transit","stylers": [{ "visibility": "on"}] },
{ "featureType": "landscape","stylers": [ { "visibility": "on" } ] },
{ "featureType": "road", "stylers": [{ "visibility": "on" } ] },
{ "featureType": "administrative", "stylers": [{ "visibility": "on" } ] },
/* followed by your style if you have specific styles
, otherwise remove the last comma */
]
