Mapstraction

liorkesos - April 1, 2008 - 08:15

This module delivers support for the Mapstraction javascript library, which provides an abstraction layer for the various map providers including Google, Yahoo!, and MapQuest. It allows you to quickly display maps on your site from multiple providers and switch between providers without worrying about differences in their APIs.

The module provides a style for the Views. When the style is used, it will display nodes as points on a map. The latitude/longitude points can be provided by any view field including CCK float fields or Location module fields.

Supported mapping providers include:

  • Google Maps
  • Map24
  • MultiMap
  • OpenSpace
  • ViaMichelin
  • Yahoo Maps
  • MapQuest
  • Microsoft Virtual Earth
  • OpenLayers
  • FreeEarth
  • CloudMade (via OpenLayers)

The Mapstraction module was initially created by Linnovate.
The Drupal 6 is maintained by diggersf from DevelopmentSeed and dixon_ from Senzilla.
