Description

Target Use Case

Creating/Viewing custom Advanced Markers spread across a multi-floor buildings like SFO Airport, San Francisco Centre Mall, etc.

Proposal

Currently using { lat, lng } to place markers at specific coordinates but do not have access to Floor controls.

Adding the ability to access Floor Controls (like how zoom, street view, etc. currently exist) would be very useful and potentially as an added feature to the AdvancedMarker an optional floor value.

It looks like the Floor Controls feature exists on iOS & Android so adding this accessibility to Web only seems natural.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Google Maps JavaScript API controls documentation linked in the issue and the AdvancedMarker API. Determine whether floor controls and an optional floor value are supported on the web, then identify the project entry points and tests needed to define the integration. Done means the proposed floor behavior is specified and verified for multi-floor marker use cases.
