Google Maps Tile URL for HYBRID mapType tiles?

I have found a basic URL structure for regular map tiles:

https://mts1.google.com/vt/lyrs=m@186112443&hl=x-local&src=app&x=1325&y=3143&z=13&s=Galile

What would be the URL structure to grab HYBRID map tiles from Google?

I don't know why I can't find this information; it seems like it should be easy to find.

Am I missing something simple? .

I have been messing with the lyrs parameter, and I think that may be part of it. When pasting the above URL in a browser, Ive tried lyrs=r, lyrs=h,lyrs=t and they give different tiles.

The closest I have come now is trying lyrs=s. It results in a Satellite tile being returned; but I do not know what I should put in for a HYBRID result.

Maybe I am going about this all wrong.

Probably off topic, but I was facing an issue with the HTTP protocol (tiles weren't showing up), so if you see nothing, then consider using your preferred tiles with HTTPS.

You need an instance from the google map js class and an anonymous function then you can set the map object to give hybrid tiles:How to get your image URL tiles? (google maps). Or maybe it's lyrs=y

TRY: http://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=y&x=1325&y=3143&z=13

For anyone who wants to save some time while looking for specific tile types:

  • h = roads only
  • m = standard roadmap
  • p = terrain
  • r = somehow altered roadmap
  • s = satellite only
  • t = terrain only
  • y = hybrid

The truth is: there is no URL specifically that holds both satellite and street info like you see in google maps hybrid. You have to combine them. Here's an example:
