Mapping kit

OpenStreetMap with GPX overlay

The Mapping kit is a collection of modules to support custom mapping. Some demos can be seen at https://aardbodem.nl/node/26.

  • An Inline maps filter is defined to mix maps with other content. These maps can be shown using OpenLayers (default), or Flash.
  • Adds content types: map context, web mapping service, map layer, map file, and geodata. A Map context defines the extent of a map and which layers to show in it. Map contexts can be selected to use for editing the location of a user or a content node.
  • By default, it uses the hosted version of the OpenLayers library to display maps. OpenLayers is extended to provide better support for web map contexts, meaning legend urls, titles, and a queryable option. The OpenLayers multi-language support is provided via Drupal.
  • Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, OpenAerialMap, Virtual Earth, and Yahoo can be used as baselayers.
  • Overlays of GeoRSS feeds and GPS tracks.
  • Adds GeoRSS feed of site users.
  • Editing of (UMN Mapserver) map files is supported but only in a limited way.
  • Map layers can be linked to a vocabulary after which taxonomy feeds can be used to add layers to a map.

CCK Time

This is a simple text-field widget that allows entry of times in 24-hour or 12-hour notation. It uses select dropdowns, and allows you to configure the minutes increment.

Geolocation Field

Google Maps widget

Provides a field type to store geographical locations as pairs of latitude and longitude and the integration to display those locations through views, fields, and map providers.

Mapstraction

Views settings

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.
