Map data © Google. Default street view hides Google business POIs so Atlas ride pins stay front and center (coasters larger, other attractions smaller). Satellite uses 3D imagery. Basemap preference is shared with the world map; camera angle is remembered for park maps on this device.
Pins use Google Places GPS when available; other attractions are placed near their land when GPS is missing. Closed rides show faded. Use the legend to show or hide levels and types.
