When linking to a place, it would be nice to add a title, description, some photos, and even a map. A place could be the old family house, a church where someone got married, or the village or parish on a census. Being able to add a description and some historic photos would be very nice. Also, for places, it would be great if we could hyperlink to a Google map, or some other such map. In the UK, we would use www.streetmap.co.uk. Any hyperlink would meet the basic requirement, but use the Latitude/Longitude would be a real smart move!

| It's all more or less possible with beta versions of Genopro... BTW. Which version of genopro are you using?

Descriptions etc.... even Latitude and Longitude. Only thing which might be added is option in report generator to use coordinates fields to create a hyperlink to Worldwind or Google earth ... or Streetmap if it's possible...

When linking to a place, it would be nice to add a title, description, some photos, and even a map. I am looking forward to using the ability to map places. Right clicking on a Place within the dialogue allows the insertion of latitude and longitude. I have a small sample of it's use at http://familytrees.genopro.com/poolzone/test3/ The integration is not yet dynamic, but hopefully will be able to be in the future. These maps could hopefully be inserted within the report generator via a map icon in the future.

May be a link using software from http://thinkgeo.com will do the trick.

I also have an example under http://familytrees.genopro.com/poolzone/test2/ using Google Maps and if I get enough time should be able to integrate coordinates using API and then insert the map on demand given any Place reference within the report. However I must balance available time against the value of the outcome. I will further investigate "thinkgeo" as you suggest.
