# How to add a polygon to a static map
Buildings and locations can be highlighted on a map by designating a polygon around them, for example, the Pentagon (located in Washington, D.C.).
## Add a single polygon
In this example, you add a polygon (a pentagon) for the Pentagon building on the map.

## Add a style polygon
In this example, we restyle the polygon shown in the previous example. We draw the polygon in a different color (**\$1E3F70550**). The color components are as follows.
+ **E3** represents the red component.
+ **F7** represents the green component.
+ **05** represents the blue component.
+ **50** represents the alpha (opacity) component.
