Dot density probably makes the most sense, no way will I be able to label each point with a member name, but might be able to do dot density, with a key somewhere listing who falls into each area. If you have suggestions, I am all ears! Perhaps something akin to this? Google Maps let's you import a spreadsheet and it'll automatically plot all the points with the labels you gave them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people were relatively accurate (even if not precise locations) - you could see who your #wxnerd neighbors are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've imported KMZ/KML files from GIS to Google Earth before, but have never made a Google Map for the public to view. I'll have to look into that!

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 My vision for this map would be one where you have dots at everyone’s location that when you mouse over their name pops up and at the same time on the side you have a list of names where you can mouse over a name and the dot on the map enlarges. Does that make any sense? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My account is through work and I can't host a map like that on that account. I am going to look into getting it on a Google Map that everyone can access. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
