Question: Here is the snippet I am using to display Google map on my app using their V3 Javascript API.

```
var myOptions = {
            zoom: 15,
            mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP

        }
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);

```

But the map shows terrain, hybrid and satellite which I don't want. How do I remove those controls from the map.

Answer: 
[The Google Maps v3 API doc](http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/reference.html) is great.

In it, you'll find that [MapOptions](http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/reference.html#MapOptions) have a property, "mapTypeControl", which is a boolean. Set it to `false` to disable it for your map.
So there's no URL attribute for disabling the satellite/terrain maps from Google's own embed code?
