showing dat on a map

How to display collected location data on a map in Joomla.

Overview

The user has gathered coordinates and information using a CF form but needs a method to visualize this data on a map.
Consider using a dedicated Joomla Google Maps extension or build a custom CF form to display map markers, referencing available forum examples for older implementations.

I have used this process to collect information and coordinates, and I would like now to show these information on a map.

as you can probably tell I am not an expert programmer and I am looking for a hint to start searching or a solution if it is that simple.

thank you in advance.

HI faitas,

There isn't enough information here to start to say anything specific. There are some other Google Maps plug-ins for Joomla! that may work for you - I used Mike Ruemer(?)'s one a while ago,

You could probably also build a ChronoForm to display a map with some tags displayed, I think that there are some examples in the forums but from quite a long time ago.
