Maps
This section is for public bodies that show where their offices, service points or facilities are. Exponential's map
support is one extension, ezgmaplocation, which stores a location on content and shows it with Google Maps when an
API key is set. There is no GIS, no self-hosted map integration and no geodata export; the pages say so and give the
alternatives.
Up: Building public-service sites, Governments: start here.
