SOLMETRA Maps is a PHP class meant to simplify display of Google Maps on your site. SOLMETRA Maps uses the extremely powerful and flexible Google Maps API to generate interactive maps.
The second but most valuable feature of SOLMETRA Maps is geocode
integration. Geocode is method of linking a place name (i.e. address,
city name, country) to a physical location on a map (lattitude and
longitude). Due to some licencing limitations with their map info
providers, Google does not provide means to utilize geocode in their
Maps API. That's where SOLMETRA Maps comes in. It allows you to basicly
type in something like "Stockholm, SWEDEN" and our class automatically
positions and zooms in Google Map on a beautiful Scandinavian city.
