Interactive Maps: GMaps PDF Print E-mail

GMaps logo GMaps is a Joomla! component that enables you to add Google Maps to your website, complete with markers of your location(s), tabbed pop-up bubbles with details and driving directions built-in!

With GMaps, you can build and manage map data from the backend admistration panels with a user-friendly interface. You can easily create markers, maps and then add those markers to each individual map. The maps can be rendered either within the body of your content using the plugin or through the front-end component.

You also are given the ability to overlay one map over another map without having to retype all of the markers. We call this a "map overlay". This is very helpful when you have defined your maps into logical categories and then want to create a map that combines them.

GMaps includes the following Key Features:

  • Source map data taken from Google Maps
  • Database driven map data
  • Driving Directions
  • Multi-tab pop-up windows
  • Back-end adminstration pages to build and maintain individual maps
  • Ability to define a marker and its attributes (i.e. title, description and image)
  • Map specific properties (i.e. height, width, zoom level, zoom type, maptype, etc.)
  • Ability to create multiple maps and assign markers to those maps
  • Define specific icons per marker (limited list is provided)
  • Simple tag definition to include maps inside your content
  • No more typing latitude / longitude information on the tag inside your content
  • Front-end component that enables the user to list and view all of the available maps defined
