Google Maps is a great tool for making your data more accessible to your staff, your customers, or the public. Using Google Maps as your platform, you can:

• make it easy for all your staff to benefit from the geospatial information you already maintain

• engage your public with interactive Maps-based applications

• How to use Google Maps to visualise your existing information sets
• How to augment your systems with Google Maps as a front-end
