Hi, I have been playing around with this module trying to get it to work and look exactly how I want. I have a question, we have over 750 points we would like to add to the map that are currently in an excel sheet. Is there an easy way to get these points onto the map, or will I have to add each one individually? Also, with this many points will it slow my page down at all? Thanks!

We generally have maps with a few thousand points, and have found that at any given time you don't want to be plotting more then ~300. This speeds up the performance, as the google map degrades with more points. Typically we use the Directory or Positional formats to display these points with a radius of 50 to 100 miles. This will callback for more points whenever the user clicks a position on the map. The import doesn't exist within the front-end, but you can refer to the section in the document on pulling in data from external sources.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your help. I am wondering when I change my map type to "Positional" how do I set the radius to be 50 to 100 miles like you say above. Thanks!
