This component allows you to display your joomla content to a Google Map additionally, Geocode Factory allows your members to geocode their location on a google map. Work with Community builder, Jomsocial (profiles and Events), Sobi2, Mosets tree.
With Geocode Factory Component, you can create an unlimited number of Google Maps (api v3). Each map has its own parameters, like zoom, zoom range, clustering, size, intro texts, radius search, etc... All the maps can be assigned to a menu item.
Our maps provide many controls like side bars, locate me button (browser position for Androids devices, iPhones, iPads, new browsers ...), radius, search by address...
The creation of markers family is very easy, and can be done from the used profile component (Community builder or Jomsocial) and/or your data component (Sobi2, Mosets tree, JS events). You can assign multiple markersets to the same map. Each markers groups is based on filters, radius, etc., and have many different settings. A personal image or the profile avatar can be used asto be used as marker icon. The markers can be linked by lines (between friends, or entryowner). The markers are loaded as xml to increase performances (not as plain text javascript), a cache system is also available.
The bubble (normal or tabbed) can contain any custom fields from the source component, an online status, avatar (icon for sobi2), streetview, distance from radius, waysearch, etc. The bubble is full customisable with HTML statements, and loaded on click with ajax to reduce the loading time.
You can mix profiles and point of interest on the same map (with different icons ans bubbles), for example, by showing the Sobi2 entries in a 50km radius from the logged user.
If you have existing profiles, it's easy to fetch the geographical coordinates (geocode) for them by the user postal address (zipcode, street, country ... etc). The process is launched in one click and the programm divide the profiles in packages, to prevent max time execution errors. You can also silent geocode users during profile creation and edition.
