Currently available maps are openstreetmap (by service leaflet), google, yandex and they can display markers, lines, polygons, rectangles, circles. Starting in version 0.7.3, it is also possible to assign an additional URL to a service.

If possible, the parameter syntax will be compatible with Maps extension.
