googlemaps is a plugin that allows using the Google Maps API from ikiwiki.

The plugin supports importing GPS tracks from gpx files, reducing the number of points in those tracks via gpsbabel, and drawing them as an overlay on the map. the center of the map and zoom level can be calculated automatically.

It can be found here.


Can this plugin be extended to allow the user to switch the displayed to many available maps, similar to the functionality provided by OSMify which allow replacing maps with one of the OpenStreetMap renderings. -- [[users/vibrog]]
