Replace this part.

googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);

With this.

googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);

This will show satellite view.

If you have added a map to your application or added a MapFragment, setting the initial state of the map can be done by configuring it with passing GoogleMapOptions object with your options specified. You can create a GoogleMapOptions object like this:

GoogleMapOptions options = new GoogleMapOptions();

And then configure it as follows:

options.mapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE)
    .compassEnabled(false)
    .rotateGesturesEnabled(false)
    .tiltGesturesEnabled(false);

To know more about applying these options when creating a map, please check Configure initial state - Programmatically.
