RepRap Map
July 10, 2012 08:25AM
Hi All,

I was told that a link exists for Rep Rap map - so I added myself and encourage everyone that hasn't seen it to do it as well:

Rep Rap Map

If you added your link to the map I created, please copy it to the one above, I've left the link here in case you need it:

my old map

Please keep it fresh!

Best Regards,

Ian

Nice idea! So much so there already exists a RepRap World Map... buried in the bottom of the Community Resources page on the Wiki.

Ha! Excellent - wish I found that from before! Perhaps this topic will revive it for those that don't know about it.

I've changed my original message to encourage everyone to keep it up to date!

I would though like to know why so many are flagged out in the middle of the ocean. Looks like a weird google map bug, or people looking for some anonymity?

Hmm - looks like my addition doesn't stick - keeps disappearing when I navigate off the page. Perhaps this map is broken?

The issue with the map is there's a limit to the number of pins per page, if you scroll all the way down and turn to the last page, you'll see your pin.

It's also possible to drag other persons pins around, and mistakes happen.

The custom icons sure make it look like a mess.

Its a big mess. Its almost useless the way it is. Experimented with viewing it as a KML file to put everything on a single page, but there is so much duplication and hokey input that it exceeds google limits, not all end up being shown. If anyone is interested, what you do is right click on KML and copy the link. Then in the search bar, paste it in and press search. Perhaps if it was cleaned up it would be useful.

Maybe separate maps for each continent?

There are several pages of pins on the map. Yours will be on the last page.

Help improve the RepRap wiki!
Just click "Edit" in the top-right corner of the page and start typing.
Anyone can edit the wiki!
