MapsAlive Incorporates Video Into Interactive Maps
Now anyone can easily create interactive maps integrating video, photos, and text with no programming.
Waitsfield, VT (Issues Wire / PRWEB) June 17, 2008 -- AvantLogic, developers of MapsAlive, the premier interactive map and floor plan application, today announced the ability to include video in interactive map tours created with its popular web application. With MapsAlive, any map can be made interactive to display photos, text, and video when the mouse moves over markers on the map. Unlike Google maps, any image, including floor plans, photos, diagrams and geographic maps, can be made interactive.
MapsAlive Interactive Map with Video
With the addition of video to MapsAlive, people can now explore locations on interactive maps in a variety of ways. Residential and commercial real estate tours can combine video with photos and text to show how rooms flow from one to another, tour a neighborhood, and give people a sense of place. Travel maps can include photos and videos highlighting specific destinations or events. Community or regional advertising maps can display video advertisements in addition to traditional image ads when people mouse over advertiser locations.
"Everyone likes maps, especially interactive maps. With MapsAlive anyone can create an interactive map that shows helpful, practical information in an engaging way," said George Soules, President of AvantLogic. "Adding an interactive map to your website attracts visitors and keeps them interested longer. The power and flexibility of MapsAlive tours put them in a class by themselves."
In addition to video, MapsAlive includes several new powerful and innovative features. A categorized directory of all map locations allows visitors to search and browse by name, and click to go directly to a location and view its content. The MapZoom feature allows visitors to zoom in or out to view more or less detail on large maps. The Live Data feature can display up-to-the minute information from a database when mousing over map markers.
