The Busy MapWoW.com Team

Posted on June 16, 2006

The MapWoW Team created the impressive MapWoW.com a World of Warcraft online map that uses the Google API. You can share the maps with others.

The map utilizes the Google Maps API and therefore behaves just a like a Google Map. Clicking on the controls on the left side of the map will let you zoom in and out. Dragging the map around lets you scroll the map and view different areas. It's that easy.
Use the menu to the right of the map to select resources and labels that you wish to display. Currently you can display herbs, ore, treasure, zone names, and city names. There are over 15,000 data points covering 69 resources with their exact map location in our database. The bottom of the menu provides quick links to popular locations in the game.

The team has been busy since they launched the map. In addition to the WOW map they also have a World of Warcraft search that is powered by Google. They also run a World of Warcraft Trading Game Blog which provides updates on the upcoming card game based on WoW. They also continue to improve on the map. You can keep up with the latest developments from the MapWoW team on the site's blog.
