mapView.zoom

The zoom level of a map. Higher zoom levels means more zoomed in. An increase of 1 zooms in to a quarter of the viewed area (half the width and height). Defaults to fitting to the map bounds.

In a WebMercator projection, a zoom level of 0 represents the world in a 256x256 pixel square. This is a common concept for WMS tiling software.
