I have

var marker = new MarkerWithLabel({
            position: uav.Position,
            icon: mapStyles.uavSymbolBlack,
            labelContent: uav.Callsign + 
              '<div style="text-align: center;"><b>Alt: </b>' + uav.Alt + 
              '<br/><b>Bat: </b>' + 
              uav.Battery + '</div>',
            labelAnchor: new google.maps.Point(95, 20),
            labelClass: "labels",
            labelStyle: { opacity: 0.75 },
            zIndex: 999999,})

This marker in my JavaScript file, but java console keep giving me an error.

Uncaught ReferenceError: MarkerWithLabel is not defined

I thought MarkerWithLabel is the built-in of the google maps api. But it doens't work.

MarkerWithLabel is not part of the Google Maps Javascript API v3, it is in a third party library MarkerWithLabel.

New location (GitHub): https://github./googlemaps/js-markerwithlabel

One indication is that if it was part of the API it would be google.maps.MarkerWithLabel.

(see the GitHub page for examples and documentation)
