How to Build an Interactive Map Powered by a Google Sheet
Summary
There are many different approaches to building an interactive map, but we’ve found that one of the most effective methods is to use a Google Sheet to manage and power the data. In this post, we’ll explain how we used a Google Sheet to create an awesome interactive map for our nonprofit website design client, MiracleFeet. MiracleFeet was already using Salesforce to manage a lot of different data points, so they were initially interested in using their existing setup to power the interactive map. For example, an interactive map that displays office locations could include fields for phone number, address, email, hours, and other location-specific details. Interactive maps are undeniably powerful tools, but they’re so often defined by complicated management systems or expensive upkeep fees.
