A viewlet for Plone that show up a Google Maps using the document location field. Also can handle KML files using related contents.
Project description
Introduction
Every Plone content, with a “Location” data can display a Google’s Map inside a viewlet. The location data must be a valid address that Google Maps service can understand (like “Piazza Grande, Modena, Italy”).
The viewlet is placed (by default) below the content.
To finally enable the map you need also to access a new option under the “Action” menu. Use this same option to disable the map.
You need to configure the Google Key in the googlemaps_key property under the monet_properties sheet (added when you’ll install the product). If your Plone site can be reached from more than one hostname, add a key for every possible ones.
KML
Also you can handle KML file using again the Google APIs. You must simply add Plone files with KML extensions to the related contents section of a document where the map is enabled.
When you have KML data to show, you can also use a new portlet that will help users to enable/disable single KML data from the map.
Other products
Take a look also to Maps for basic Google Maps integration.
If you need something more professional (also with KML support) don’t miss the collective.geo suite!
