GPlotter in the Wild
July 26th, 2005The GPlotter website went online yesterday and was viewed by 400 visitors in the first 24 hours. That is encouraging. In the stats I am finding several sites linking to the GPlotter and also using it.
Here are a few comments on GPlotter:
- New Google Maps Tool: GPlotter
- trendalicious!
- Blog: Log Of Growth (Asian Region)
- del.icio.us / stuboo
Here are a few pages with GPlotter in action:
As for new features, I have pulled down the Tiger data for the US which provides address and lat/long coordinate data. Once I have a better handle on working with that data I hope to create a tool to help build GPlotter files with a web form.

Brennan,
Congratulations and thank you for your efforts on GPlotter. I am looking forward to using it in some way once I get a better grip on what would be the best use of resources.
But I know that GPlotter will definitely make it easier!!!
Please add a RSS feed to your blog as well.
Sincerely,
Roney Smith

GPlotter .. I like it and it makes understanding the coding much easier. Have a problem though which may be obvious to some one whose clearly more au fait with these things than I am.
Followed the example codes etc and loaded everything up to my host etc but get a grey map. Click onto satellite view and zoom out and I eventually get a location set up in the arctic ocean ... I ain't there! This happens when I use my own xml file and the cdtourist file. Any clues to what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers,
Pete
