 | hoverable           | Boolean value, whether the features of the layer can be hovered in order to display information in a tooltip. The WMS must support `GetFeatureInfo` requests to obtain feature information. Wegue's default hover tooltip renders a single feature attribute which has to be declared by `hoverAttribute`.

For more information on how to implement a map overlay see the [reusable components](reusable-components?id=map-overlay) section. | `"hoverOverlay": "my-custom-overlay"` |
