Remarks

You can specify one of the named layers of map content to contain the tiles that you overlay on the map. The values of the MapTileLayer enumeration are similar to a range of z-index values, from foreground to background. If you don't specify a value for the Layer property, the tiles are overlaid in the foreground layer.

To replace the default map entirely:

Specify MapTileLayer.BackgroundReplacement as the value of the Layer property of the MapTileSource.
Specify MapStyle.None as the value of the Style property of the MapControl.
