Google Geo Mapper Sharepoint Web Part

The Google Geo Mapper Web Part allows to display the geographical locations taken from a Sharepoint List or a Sharepoint Document Library. The map is created using Google's public Map API. Detailed information about each location is shown in the info bubble and in an optional info window below the map. List attachments and Document library files can be opened from the info window. The Web Part can be connected to a Sharepoint List to get the Latitude/Longitude information from a Sharepoint List. The free "Geocoder" companion web part allows to populate the specified Sharepoint List with the Latitude and Longitude information based on the address data contained in the List. The Web Part can be used with Windows Sharepoint Services V3, MOSS 2007, Sharepoint 2010, Sharepoint 2013 and Sharepoint 2016. The following parameters can be configured: Sharepoint List or Document Library containing the longitude/latitude coordinates supports List Views for filtering Map width, height and initial Map Zoom level Default Map Pin Icon optional List column name containing the Pin Icon name. Allows to assign different pins to each location Info Bubble Text Template Info Box List Column to display additional information and file attachments below the map for each selected location Please note that Google requires a Google Maps API for Business license if the web part is used on an non-public internal website.
