Thanks, Adam! Was able to add the code on base-layers.js with the following
and it worked like a charm:
baseLayers.push({
id: 'heremaps',
name: 'HERE Maps (Satellite View)',
icon: arches.urls.media + 'img/here.jpeg',
layer: new ol.layer.Tile({
visible: false,
source: new ol.source.XYZ({
url:
'http://{1-4}.aerial.maps.api.here.com/maptile/2.1/maptile/newest/hybrid.day.transit/{z}/{x}/{y}/256/png8?app_id=<insert
your app ID>&app_code=<insert your app code>'
})
})
});
I read the FAQs for licensing of HERE Maps on this
URL: https://developer.here.com/faqs#licensing-terms and it looks like we
are definitely allowed to use the Consumer Mapping Basic Plan for the
Philippine Heritage Map. I would recommend the rest to add this one as
their basemap as well.
Thanks again!
Regards,
Joel
