Watermarks can help protect your map against misuse or serve as a means of brand promotion. It's easy to include a custom watermark on a MapTiler map with the Customize tool.
Preparing watermark image
Make sure your watermark image is in the supported format (PNG or SVG), with transparent background. For SVGs, make sure the texts are converted to paths. This can be done using for example Inkscape or other graphics software.
Add watermark to your map
Go to your map, click on Customize and then on the Upload Icons button.
In the next dialogue window, choose the second option Raster icons (or mixed format). Select your watermark image and click on Upload.
To display the watermark across the whole map, duplicate the Background layer and move it to the top using the Verticality tab. Then select your watermark image in the Pattern property. You can also adjust the Opacity to make the watermark more subtle.
Keeping maps original icons
When you upload a new set of icons (e.g. your watermark), you automatically lose the previous one. Customize currently doesn't support multiple icon sets! If you need to combine your icons with MapTiler icon set, please contact support@maptiler.com for the individual SVG files.
