Project: Google Maps members overview

Another project: last week I finalized a Google Maps integration with an overview of my client’s members and the status of their membership.

VSK (or the Vlaamse Scholieren Koepel) manage their member schools through a web interface and because they had addresses of each school, it was a logical step to show them on a Google Maps overview:

While the result will definitely come in handy for them, implementation is not spectacularly difficult. The fact that the hosting was fixed on PHP 4.x caused a bit more “fun” though!

This can save some time searching: to center a map on a set of markers (like with the county selection above) your must first center it on a set of fixed coordinates.
