Backcountry Update: Embedded Backcountry Maps & AvalancheData.com

Submitted by jp on Mon, 04/17/2006 - 19:39

BackcountryMaps.com is really coming along, we just added features to allow users of the "My Maps" module the option of embedding custom maps on to their own site. Above is an example of a public My Map created by JP and linked from a 3rd party site. We've also added some new features which allow much easier map marker creation. My Map users can now click anywhere on the map and create a marker from that point.

AvalancheData.com was launched 4/16/2006. Happy Easter. AvalancheData.com provides a service and home on the web for Avalanche Forecast Centers and Backcountry Observers. Create custom maps with any type of data, embed those maps on your Avalanche Center's homepage, collaborate with other forecasters, and use our tools and data layers for a complete view of any location.
