RocWiki Map Example RocWiki Monroe County Map The current RocWiki Map facility is an optional Map Icon placed at the top of any page that contains an address specified with the Address Macro, such as:

City Hall: 30 Church Street, Rochester, NY 14614

Using the Map Icon

Clicking on the Map Icon causes RocWiki to display a small Google map of the specified address in the Address Macro. Clicking the Map Icon while the map is displayed will hide the map. The map will have a green arrow and text box showing the location and text used in the macro. RocWiki will also display red balloons for other RocWiki addresses with the displayed area. The map is interactive with pan and zoom controls. The user may select a Map, Satellite, or Hybrid display. Clicking on the 'Google" logo at the lower left will open up Google in the main window with the current map.

See Help with Maps for a detailed description of mapping options in RocWiki, further help with the Address macro, and details on using Google Maps facilities.
