Extension:Semantic Maps

Documentation
This placeholder is to ensure that Maps shows up in the Extension Matrix. The actual Semantic Maps documentation can be found on mapping.referata.com.

Short description
Semantic Maps is an extension that adds semantic capabilities to the Maps extension. This includes the ability to add, edit, aggregate and visualize coordinate data stored through the Semantic MediaWiki extension. Since Semantic Maps uses the Maps API, you can use multiple mapping services. These include Google Maps (with Google Earth support), Yahoo! Maps, OpenLayers and OpenStreetMap.

Work for hire
The following people can be hired to set up a wiki that uses Maps and Semantic Maps, along with other MediaWiki components.


 * Jeroen De Dauw - You can also hire me to develop new features for Maps or it's extensions, or do optimizations for your specific needs. Just send me an email.
