Self-serve Customization Tools
Our iMapCreator self-serve tool is designed with your busy news and weather department in mind. We put you in the driver’s seat.
With this powerful tool, you can add different locations and data to iMap as well as a large number of content layers to fit the weather news angle of the day.
Local stations web sites can define what content will be turned on automatically when the user first opens iMap, and what layers your audiences can toggle on or off the display. We do all the heavy lifting to make it easy for you.
iMapCreator Benefits
We work closely with local stations to allow the members of your interactive team to play different “roles” within the management tool so your entire
group of stations has the same access to these best-of-breed interactive tools. Here are just some examples:
- You can easily create custom maps for any special community event
- You can create navigational iMap layers that are displayed as tablature architecture
- You can create individual maps, from a thumbnail screen to a full screen, with only certain content loaded
- We can help you create “special project” maps for seasonal or event coverage
Map Management Page
iMapManager gives you the ability to create a “master” account that gives you access to manipulating maps and allows you to distribute authority to
make changes on-the-fly, using several internal client accounts. We offer superior iMap metrics, so you can track the performance of every map you
produce.
Map Configuration Page
Our Configuration page offers you an iMap URL Path, the ability to control dynamic iMap instances, the ability to use tabular configuration settings and manage saved configurations.
Default Configuration Setting
You can manage default setting for basic maps as well as adjust iMap controls, how your map animates on load, and what type of balloon types you would like to feature on your map.
