Default Google Map Integration
Looking to add a google map to my site so i can put pins with customer locations and different kite locations.

Does anyone have any knowledge on how to integrate this? i received a google maps API Key but not a clue what to do next.

thanks so much in advance

Default Re: Google Map Integration
Yes, have integrated google maps in this manner.
It's fairly involved however. You need to assign geodata to each of your customers (lat and lon), by making calls to the googlemap api.
You will either need to do this when they register or have a script do this later on.
Then another script to generate the google markers from the data and to load them into a map.
More ideas here http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlajax.html
We offer professional services if you are looking to outsource the coding of such a project.
Good luck,
