Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Geolocation Field Overview
Geolocation Field provides a field type to store geographical locations as pairs of latitude and longitude (lan,lng). Currently, a stable and secure version exists for both Drupal 7 and 8. Since the Drupal 8 version was a complete rewrite the two modules differ in functionality and will be handled separately below. The documentation is currently far behind the module itself, so please feel free to submit any 'how tos' or detailed directions on configuring and using this module.
With the increased use of mobile, the importance and the potential of Geolocation increase every day. Geolocation continues to prove itself a vital aspect of monetizing websites as the benefits of "localizing" web content for the advertiser, the vendor, and the user become clearer. With that in mind, be inspired to contribute, comment, or test!
Mission:
Geolocation Field aims to provide a light-weight, easy-to-use and robust alternative to more complex solutions.
Current Goals: [a top five hit list here]
Geolocation Field for Drupal 7:
Geolocation Field remains a key part of the Geolocation modules for Drupal 7. The module is a light-weight alternative to the Geofield module, since it does not automatically enable its own widgets, but implements the widgets in submodules.
Users of Address field can use Geolocation Field to geocode their address using the Geocoder helper module.
Other helper modules include:
- Geolocation Views - provides a Google Maps Views plugin
- Geolocation Proximity - adds Views handlers for proximity searching
