Here is an example of using
Google Maps API for point distribution data: http://www.evergladescisma.org/species/subinfo.cfm?sub=2783
See bottom of the page.
We are implementing this technique across the Southeast U.S.
If anyone has questions about using Google Maps API, please let
me know and I will be glad to help.

Subject: Re: [tdwg] Species pages and video
Great to see map information
with the species, and using Google Earth is exciting.
It would be nice if some representation or preview of the map appeared right on
the page... worth taking a look at the Google Maps API. Helps you know if
it's worth the extra click & switching to the other app. Also, did you know
that KMLs will show up on maps.google.com
too? It's called "kml on maps" - might help with what you're
looking for.
Best,

Hello,
I will not be attending the meeting this fall but thought
that this
may be of interest to those interested in species pages models.
I am working on species pages that include the use of video. The
videos
were only added a month ago and are a bit rudimentary
(with budget-conscious equipment) but the potential now seems truly
limitless.
