You also can’t edit the modal.Īnd this is the downside of Google My Maps: there is limited style options. Unfortunately you can’t change the markers size or shape.
Markers can be customized by choosing between preset icons or preset colors (though you actually can’t choose a custom marker color!). Using Google My Maps to measure the size of a park. You can even get square feet by drawing a polygon. It also includes an excellent tool for distance calculations and measurements. I find it especially useful for creating biking and walking routes:Īdding several routes as layers in Google Maps. Each of these are organized within layers. Google My Maps is best used for adding markers and creating custom routes (for driving, biking or walking) between these markers. Google My Maps has a bit of a learning curve but is a handy tool for creating routes, drawing polygons and taking measurements. Mobile Friendly - Works in iOS and Android.įormerly Google Map Maker, My Maps is a free tool with powerful features but poor map styling.Embed Anywhere - You can embed Atlist maps on any website.Atlist let’s you add directions, photos and much more to modals. Modals - Interactive maps needs modals (modals are the info windows that pop up when you click a marker).Atlist has thousands of different map styles to choose from (though an integration with Snazzy Maps). Custom Map Styles - Custom map styles are like map templates- they change the colors of your map.Add markers manually or by importing address data from an Excel spreadsheet or CSV. Hundreds of Markers - Create maps with hundreds of markers.We wanted creating an online map to be as easy as it is to create a Microsoft Word document.
Our goal with Atlist was to make a tool that allowed anyone to create their own custom maps. So while I think it’s great, I am slightly biased.
Now I should mention: I’m a co-founder of Atlist. The Map Builder when then ask you to choose whether you want a Grid & Tile or Freeform Image level.I’d suggest Atlist if you need a custom Google Map with multiple markers. The first step in creating a map is to add a level, which can be done by clicking the button on the lower left of the Map Builder. Take a look at list of pre-created maps here or start a new map here. This means that you can build up a list of items, such as character tokens, monster tokens, area of effect markers, or miscellaneous spell effects, that are right at your fingertips to add into thw action as you go through your map. Any Custom Items you have added to the map in the Map Builder are also available for placement. In the Map Viewer you can add effects like Fog for a more atmospheric experience. You can then display your map to your players through a computer (hooked up to your TV, projector, or futuristic holographic gaming table) and walk them through your map without spoiling everything immediately. Awesome Map! But oh no! Players can see every room and now it's spoiled!
