Gino, Integration with Google Maps is on our product roadmap. In the interim, you might be interested in the Google Maps integration developed by one of our customers, Jakob Peterhänsel. Below is Jakob's message posted to InterMapper Talk that details exactly what he did:
**************************************************************************** *************************** Guess I have to step in... as it was me that started the Google Maps integration some 3 years ago. My job has changed since, and I haven't touched the code in 2 years. But here is what I did: 1: Have an XML file with Location ID & lat & long. 2: Enter the Location ID in the Comment of the devices I would like to map. 3: Load a HTML page with a Google map on it, that polled InterMapper via Web for the XML Device list, filter the list for devices (in this case map-probes) with the ID's in the Comment and then show those as location-pin's on the map. The old version is actually still online here: http://www.hjemme.dk/map/ It will only show the locations as grey, since you need to load the map inside the firewall of my old job in order to get the update. Also, the page uses the Old Google Maps API (1.0) so it needs to be updated to version 2. It's a hack, but it works.. and it might be cool to try to make it inside the InterMapper web server, but as I remember there is some limitations in that HTTP server that makes it hard. But what's wrong with an Apache next to it.. ;-) Jakob Peterhänsel "Be a part of the Love Generation - carry a smile, not a gun." - JP, May 2006 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] AIM: Marook Phone: +45 29687104.
