    Name of the map being downloaded from the server, specified as a string or character array. Maps are downloaded in the default folder that is added to MATLAB search path at startup.

    Maps are stored by user profile. For multiuser setup with a single MATLAB installation, the maps will be downloaded multiple times.

    If a new version of the map is available on the server, you will see a warning message asking you to download the map again to get the recent version.
