Maps

You can now insert Google Maps into Wiki pages.

This is possible due to the GoogleMapsExtension of Emiller.

Usage

Tag: <googlemaps>

Options

• width - specifies the width of the map in pixels
• height - specifies the height of the map in pixels
• lat - latitude, specifies the location of the center of the map (north or south of the Equator)
• lon - longitude, specifies the location of the center of the map (east or west of the Prime Meridian)
• zoom - specifies how far you are zoomed in or out (0=closest, higher numbers = further away, notice that google doesnt provide data closer to 4 or something in many areas, try in preview)
• type - (legal values are "map", "hybrid", and "satellite"; defaults to hybrid)
• controls ("small" creates +/- zoom buttons, "medium" has zoom buttons and pan buttons, and "large" has pan buttons with a sliding scale for zoom)

Example

Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas

<googlemap width="400" height="400" lat="36.095632" lon="-115.175278" zoom="0" controls="small" type="hybrid">
</googlemap>

Result

<googlemap width="200" height="200" lat="36.095632" lon="-115.175278" zoom="0" controls="small" type="hybrid"> </googlemap>

Adding Landmarks

Now if you want to add landmarks you can do so like this: (notice you could also use wiki syntax, like bracket links inside the landmark description}

Example

<googlemap width="400" height="400" lat="22.566667" lon="77.2" zoom="13" controls="small" type="hybrid">
28.566667,77.2, Delhi
18.96,72.82, Mumbai (Bombay)
15.29,73.49, Goa
13.09,80.27, Chennai (Madras)
22.82,88.2, Kolkata (Calcutta)
</googlemap>

Result

see on India, it appears that i cant put this here because multiple maps on the same page dont work

Example pages

Pages this is being used on include: India,Cologne,Nordhorn,Sealand..
