Public maps made using BatchGeo

Hundreds of maps are created everyday using BatchGeo, not all of those maps make it to the public because of our map security system.

However for those of you who have linked your map from your own public site, its easy to find these maps as they get indexed by Google:

As you can see there are thousands of maps available from all over the world on all sorts of things. We’re proud to have created such an easy system to use that so many maps are created daily.

Here’s another fun search that will show you a lot of Twitter users are happy with BatchGeo:

Overall its great to see how many maps and happy users we have out there, as always keep posting here if you can think of ways we can continue to improve our service.

Map Printing Issues? Try this…

We recently upgraded to Google Maps API version 3. This version has a lots of advantages for access over mobile devices, and offers general performance improvements.

Unfortunately the new version also comes with some quirks around printing. Apparently some browsers will require you enable the “Print background colors and images” in order to print properly. If you are having difficulty printing maps in BatchGeo try turning on this option in your browser.

Update

This appears to be a known issue with Google Maps Version 3. The only solution I have found is to try browsers other than Internet Explorer, such as Firefox or Chrome.
