The OverMap control creates a small overview map, useful to display the extent of a zoomed map and your main map and provide additional navigation options to the User. By default the overview map is drawn in the lower right corner of the main map. Create a new overview map with the OpenLayers.Control.OverviewMap constructor.

{OpenLayers.Map} A reference to the overview map itself.

{Array(OpenLayers.Layer)} Ordered list of layers in the overview map. If none are sent at construction, the base layer for the main map is used.
