# Map parameters
You can use YMapsML to set the map type and viewport. The [repr:View](https://yandex.com/dev/maps/ymapsml/doc/en/ref/reference/representation-View.md) element is intended for this.
The Yandex.Maps API supports showing three built-in types of maps:
- MAP — “Roadmap” map type. Schematic view of the objects in an area. Used by default.
- SATELLITE — “Satellite” map type. A satellite map of the area.
- HYBRID —“Hybrid” map type. Satellite map of an area with names of geo objects overlaid on it.
The [repr:mapType](https://yandex.com/dev/maps/ymapsml/doc/en/ref/reference/representation-mapType.md) element can contain one of the map type identifiers provided in the list.
The [map viewport](https://yandex.com/dev/maps/ymapsml/doc/en/guide/concepts/setgeodata.md#mapBounds) is a rectangular area that is defined by setting the coordinates of the upper and lower points To set the viewport for a map, the [gml:boundedBy](https://yandex.com/dev/maps/ymapsml/doc/en/ref/reference/gml-boundedBy.md) element is used.
Consider the following example. We'll put all the map types that are supported by the service on the HTML page for the map — “roadmap”, “satellite”, “hybrid” — and set a viewport for each of them.
