  3. hi there,

    i would also like to add our site to your list. we have a general information site about the city of hurghada on the red sea coast in egypt. we depend heavily on a map we have created with the google API since Hurghada only has a handfull of street names and nobody knows where anything like hotels, restaurants, doctors etc is.

    you find our site here...http://www.hurghada-information.com

    we appreciate any comments.

  6. May I also add my google map application in your list, too?

    It is a mood map. Users submit color representing their mood at the moment. The system will generate a mood index every day based on the users' color. From the index, I can see how color is related to ppl's mood. Which region's ppl are happier? etc...

    Are you doing any requests? The timeline idea is cool, but I'd really like to see a googlemap/time travel mashup. One way it could work is if you extended your timeline of "current events" into the future, using the soon the be announced future.news.google rss feed.

    Hello,

    I would like to submit my mashup to your list.

    It's a google map controled by a header made in Flash, and a left panel also made in Flash.

    It's a bidirectional Javascript-ActionScript talk. Through the Google Map you can launch mp3 Audios inside the Flash pane.

    So far it's only in a Demo State as there is only one AudioGuide. Later it'll be fed up by a database backend system.

    Maybe I missed the official announcement, but I just noticed that Flash Earth (http://www.flashearth.com) has dropped Google Maps from it's list of available sites. I'm not happy about this because it was so very handy to be able to switch between providers and compare data. Also, Flash Earth often had a different data set than Google Maps itself, and sometimes maintained newer data, even when Google reverted to older data.

    Hey all,

    I've been mapping visitor/member addresses in conjuction with census data for museums (at http://c-3-d.org). Various basic summary statistics are also available about the demographics of visitors/members.
    Example:
    http://www.williams.edu/Economics/ArtsEcon/mappages/ChesapeakeBay/CBMM_members.htm

    Also I've been mapping some social networks. Example:
    http://williams.edu/Economics/ArtsEcon/mappages/MOCAMap/mocanetwork.htm
    (the markers may or may not be working - I really shouldn't be downloading the pngs from google)

    Finally I've been mapping some statistical regression results on the impact of museums on local housing prices. More specifically: estimated values in the price change of individual houses (and houses averaged by census block group) before and after the museum was opened.
    Example:
    http://www.williams.edu/Economics/ArtsEcon/mappages/DiaBeacon/DiaBeacon_housing.htm

    I've got about 20 maps up at this point. Suggestions are always welcome!

    What is it with maps on the internet? why is it apparently impossible to get a proper map of anywhere? I mean a physical map showing physical features and height asl like the UK Ordnance Survey 1:50000? All that seems to be available is sketches showing where hotels are or tourist offices or such-like. My search for a map of Norway on Google took me to a 3-inch map of Norway, showing Oslo and nothing else. Does anybody ever look at proper maps and not just, for example, sketches showing where the major hotels are in a town?
    I found it is possible to get reasonable maps of Norway, but only by going to the White Pages telephone directory, which seems a strange way of going about it .

    Welcome to the treasure hunt that takes you all around the world



    Many treasures are hidden somewhere in the world.

    You will get 13 map pins to place on the map, on the spot where you want to dig for the treasure.

    For each time you dig, you will get information that tells you if the current location is closer or further

    away from the treasure than the previous one.

    Is there a map app that simply takes a list of zip codes and displays a USA map with markers for the locations? I found plenty of maps that do something if you enter a zip code, but I kinda want to go the other way. Enter a list of zips and get a map showing where they are geographically.

    Many thanks.

    There have been 4,827 posts so far on Google Maps Mania. With a lot of posts having had more than one post I would guess it must be over 7,000.
