&gt; Hi:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I want to know if there is any document about the concepts and relationship<br>
&gt; between the map/maptype/layers/overlay ?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I thinks sometime it is necessary if we want to do some customzation.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I have read the doc from <a href="http://ol.org" target="_blank">ol.org</a>,but the api document is simple.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Any complete documents?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Thanks.<br>
