Resort Maps selects MapsAlive to make their online maps interactive. A leading advertising map publisher, Resort Maps recently launched their new website featuring over 170 hand drawn maps made interactive with MapsAlive. With MapsAlive, Resort Maps was able to turn their existing printed maps into interactive tours that let visitors explore communities and locate attractions, lodging, restaurants, shopping and other services. To view the interactive maps created by Resort Maps, visit: www.resortmaps.com.
New York Police and the Bronx District Attorney recently used MapsAlive to present evidence during a murder trial. The detectives created an interactive crime scene using neighborhood maps and floor plans. The resulting tour was used during testimony to show the jurors where and how the crime took place. Here is the New York Daily News article covering the conviction.
Use Custom Shape Markers on Your Maps
Now you can import HTML image maps and MapsAlive will automatically create custom shape markers for your maps. This makes it easier to create markers that highlight irregularly shaped areas on your maps, such as states, countries, and floor plan rooms. Several programs including MapEdit, ImageReady, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks let you create image maps. See an example.
Making Maps, Floor Plans, and Diagrams Interactive
MapsAlive is a web tool that allows you to make your online maps come alive by turning them into interactive tours. Why use maps that do nothing when you can tell your story interactively? Interactive maps and tours are fun and people love them. They engage visitors by letting them discover and choose what they want to see in the order they want to see it.

Anyone with basic computer skills can create a MapsAlive tour. You don't need to download any software or do any programming — simply create your tours right here on this website using step-by-step instructions.

Add interactive tours to your web site
Your tours can display within your existing web pages like we have done with the interactive map tours on this page. Or, you can add links to your page that visitors can click to have the tour open in a new window or replace the current window. If you don’t have your own website, you can use your tour as a stand-alone website. Learn more…
A powerful web development tool
MapsAlive incorporates the knowledge and experience of expert web developers to automatically create interactive maps that utilize the latest web technologies.
