location

Dear All

I'm looking to recreate Google Map functionality I wrote for my site (http://www.racekites.com/locations/locations.asp) in asp using Drupal.

I have the modules installed and can display a single location to a single map.

Is it possible to send multiple (500+) locations to a single map using the standard GMap module ?

How can this be achieved ?

Cheers

Hi

Using the CCK, location, views, gmap and Gmap_location modules, I have 2 main problems;

1. I CANNOT find a way to set the 'latitude & longitude' fields as 'required' on a CCK form

2. Is there any way for these Location and Gmap modules to work together to 'validate' each other and not allow bizarre types of location data into a node type? (E.g. not allowing to form to save something like city: London, country: USA, GEO co-ordinates: tokyo)

This is what i have done...

I have installed the following modules: Location, Gmap, Gmap location, CCK, views.

Hej. Första gången jag försöker mig på exposed filter (rätt ny Drupal kille) och behöver lite hjälp.

Jag använder location module för att lägga till locations till en node-type. Sedan har jag i views skapat en liten lista över dessa nodes som visas med titel, bild thumbnail och så i en tabell. I samma view har jag under "filter" lagt till Location:Country - exposed filter. I previews funktionen (när jag fortfarande jobbar med views) fungerar det jättebra, exposed filter finns ovanför node-listan, man väljer ett land, klickar på "apply" och nodes-en filtreras.

Hi,

I am building a Drupal 6 website for my amateur radio emergency service club. One of our key missions is training (educating) others, so I am trying to build a useful online resource for our members, and others who visit our site. I have built several stand alone drupal sites, before but am now branching out into group sites. In this case we have several groups linked by location (e.g. a specific city) or interest. I need advice in planning a few key features.

I've just released some "proof of concept" code at http://drupal.org/project/whereis, it's an application that runs on your Symbian phone (Nokia S60), queries your GPS for your lat/long, and sends your coordinates to Drupal using XMLRPC.

At the moment, Drupal will receive a node id, latitude and longitude, and it will simply update the location-enabled node with the new coordinates.

This is all at a very basic level at the moment, but in the future it opens up many possibilities - think Google Latitude style functionality for Drupal.

Hi,
my users dont give the full adress, they just have to enter city,postal-code and country. With this data i want to create a users-map, but there is a problem if two or more users entered the same location. Just the first of them will be shown on the map.
Is there a possibility to tell gmap&views: The first user is shown in the center and the others shown around him/her ?

Hi there,

Recently I've been reviewing mapping modules for a NGO's Drupal6 website in Germany.

They want to be able to do something very simple: add an address (possibly via CCK Address or a simple text field) to a node (of type event, but selfmade, not via Event module). A map should show up in the full view of that node, having a marker at the place they specified.

Hi everyone,

I'm creating a new website aimed at listing local advertising options for small business owners. Below, I'll give a synopsis of my intended site (mapping) features, the core drupal mapping functions that I believe I'll need, and my implementation options as I see them.

My 2 questions are:

1) Am I missing anything? (Are there any core mapping functions or implementation options that I haven't thought about or that I'm just plain wrong about?)

Our last meetup had record numbers and it was clear that we've outgrown our current venue. Does anyone have recommendations of where we can hold future meetups?

Hello all.

Is it possible just to add a map to a user page?

Even after 2 years of struggling, I still feel like a newbie, as I say in all my posts, and I have been trying for myself for some weeks now (few spare hours a week) and I am about to give up on this AND on Drupal.
How come it is not possible to find a step by step explanation or even any reference to something essential and apparently simple like this?
For the moment I have the impression that users dispose of a map only for INPUT but NOT for OUTPUT????
