Location

Place is a collection of modules for storing and displaying geographic location data and in Drupal.

Geobrowser is a module for browsing drupal's spatial information. It provides a google maps powered interactive viewer for location enabled nodes.

An example implementation of the geobrowser module can be seen on http://mapping.uvic.ca

Features Include

This module allows users to write a letter to newspaper editors. It will allow users to enter a zip code and a search radius and will then display a dropdown list of available newspapers and a letter submission form.

This module depends on the Location module to enable zipcode-based searches of available newspapers. Be sure that you have enabled the Location module and installed the zipcode data packaged with it.

Defines a 'weekly office hours' field type, allowing you to specify when a location is open or closed.

The D8-version is now the version for new functionalities. New features are:
- separate formatters for string, table and status.
- comments per time slot.
The D7-version is only maintained for errors.
The D6-version is not maintained anymore.

Functionalities

A short intro can be found here.

This module provides a CCK field for Latitude/Longitude. It stores the values in a fairly naive/simple manner as mere decimal numbers. It provides basic views integration to show the values as numbers. A more full featured solution is the CCK Geographical Well Known Text field provided by the Geo Module.

Jewish site owners are required by the Halacha (the jewish law) to close their site on Shabbat and Jewish holidays, if the site aims towards a Jewish audience or if the site is in a primarily Jewish language such as Hebrew, Yiddish or Ladino.

This module is an interface to integrate 3rd party mechanisms, which watch Shabbat times and allow a website to be Shabbat and jewish holidays observant. Content will be blocked on shabbat and jewish holidays schedule, according to the surfer's location. This is done in a google-friendly way (so that the site will continue to exist for Google).

The most complete module to let you link your users and contents to physical addresses.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I created a new branch named 6.x-1.x. This means the master branch is not used for development anymore. If you used git directly to get the latest, make sure to switch to the new branch.

A Google Client Geocoder based package, which allows you to:

• Use a Google client geocoder enabled, xAL - Extensible Address Language compliant address field in your forms (by gcg).
• Add addresses to your nodes and display the address either on a static or dynamic Google Map (by gcg_node).
• Automatically categorize the content by location (by gcg_taxonomy).

The package depends on the Country codes API and requires a Google Maps API Key.

The gProximity module provides the ability to display a view in the form of a Google map by adding various fields to the map, with at least a Latitude field and Longitude field, any collection of content can be viewed.

The gProximity map also provides the ability to enter an address and the closest locations to the address will be listed next to the map.

A CCK field type to store lists of co-ordinates, or tracks. These tracks are intended to be visualised on maps, plotted as distance/altitude profiles, have statistics derived from them, etc.

The module has been created in what is hoped is a flexible enough manner to allow multiple input formats to be used, and to allow track data to be shown in many different ways. The 'base' trackfield CCK field knows about latitude, longitude, altitude and distance. This system is flexible enough to allow distance/altitude pairs to be entered without latitude/longitude (this entry could be via the trackfield_csv module). This would be useful for someone with a cycle computer with altimeter but no GPS who wishes to graph hill profiles. Although of course the input modules know how to convert latitude/longitude pairs into distance data when it is entered.

User data handling will be catered for later, an example of which is an athlete who might want to record heart rate and time information (from which speed can be derived) at each co-ordinate.
