This module delivers support for the Mapstraction javascript library, which provides an abstraction layer for the various map providers including Google, Yahoo!, and MapQuest. It allows you to quickly display maps on your site from multiple providers and switch between providers without worrying about differences in their APIs.
The module provides a Views style plugin and an API for developers to use maps elsewhere. When the Views style is used, it will display nodes as points on a map. The latitude/longitude points, info balloon contents, map icon, and one or more attributes can be provided by any view fields, including those from CCK. Other settings can be seen on the attached screen shot.
This CCK field type presents a list (or table) of multiple node or user references, each identified by a description (and, optionally, a second descriptive field).
