Description (last modified by jri) (diff)

GeoMaps? are needed for different use cases (e.g. Kiezatlas/freifunk).

The Geomaps module provides a custom maptype "Geomap".
A geomap is rendered as e.g. OpenStreetMap? or GoogleMaps?.
Topics with a geo reference, e.g. everything which as an Address, are automatically placed at the respective geo coordinates.
Geomaps can coexist with standard topicmaps. The user switches between them as usual.

Could be realized by means of OpenLayers?.

There is still a bug: new markers are added to *every* geomap.

See ticket 53.
