Satellite view on Azure maps just gives blank screen

Question

We have an issue whereby "satellite" images no longer work using Azure maps. The standard "road" map is shown just fine. I have simplified as much as possible, but don't know what else to try, any clues ?

<script type="text/javascript">
         //Create an instance of the map control and set some options.
         function InitMap() {
             var map = new atlas.Map('myMap', {
                 center: [1.1, 52.1],
                 zoom: 12,
                 style: 'satellite',
                 authOptions: {
                     authType: 'subscriptionKey',
                     subscriptionKey: '<<<<key goes here>>>>>'
                 }
             });
         }
     </script>

Ok, looks like you are using the old Gen1 pricing model that had S0 and S1 SKUs. S0 doesn't provide access to satellite imagery (imagery tile). Satellite imagery was only available with S1 SKU in the past. A new Gen 2 pricing model came out early this year that provides access to all services which works out to be much cheaper than S1 and if you have high enough volume, will become nearly the same price as the old S0 SKU. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/azure-maps/

You can change the SKU in your Azure Maps subscription as follows:

1. Log into the Azure portal and open you Azure Maps subscription.
2. Go to Settings -> Pricing tier
3. In the Pricing tier dropdown, select Gen 2
