Title: Best way to create a map for a website? Post by: activecoin on March 20, 2014, 05:01:15 AM I need to have maps on my website of geocache coordinates marked on it.
Is there an easy way to add overlays to google earth? Or should I use something else? Title: Re: Best way to create a map for a website?

I read through what they can be used for, but I kind of need to cover every possible area in the future, my understanding was they provide simple way to use small maps, I will look again maybe I overlooked something.

Well, I think Google Maps has some really advanced features. Pretty sure you can achieve this with just Google Maps. Title: Re: Best way to create a map for a website?
