Global Mapper v25.0

export HTML embed code

Hello,

Is it possible to export vector files as an HTML embed code so the file can be opened in Explorer?

I used the 'Google Maps Tiles' function to export, however, the code seems to be linked to the files on my computer and cannot be opened by someone else.


Thank you.

    Hello,

    You can edit the HTML file to replace the local folder reference with a server name, or whatever path is needed for you to share the files.  Just be sure to move the actual tile files, if needed.

    Cheers,

    Bob

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply. 
    The files I uploaded in Global Mapper are .kmz files. 
    Is there a possibility to convert them into HTML?

    Kind regards,

    1. After you export your map to Google Tiles, the resulting HTML file will contain references to the tiles that make up your map, and the tiles will be in files on your computer.  
    2. You will need to copy the tile files from the location on your computer to the server.
    3. You will need to edit the HTML file in a text editor, and change the location so that it points to the path on your web server where you copied the files.
