Introduction
The Minimap Addon gives you a suite of in-built maps and mapping tools for your web browser.
This extension comes with two mapping components, the main and most powerful one being a minimap sidebar. In this sidebar you can drag and drop addresses or locations you find on web pages and they will be automatically located, and added to your saved address list.
Explore these tabs and the site to find out more.
Addresses
Address Handling
Have you ever found yourself on a webpage that has an address but no maps link? Highlight the address, drag and drop onto the minimap sidebar and the location will be shown! Looking at sites like craiglist? Trying to compare multiple locations across many tabs can get confusing so why not drag and drop all the maps links onto the sidebar to show them all together!.

KML/GPX/GeoRSS
Like Google Earth? Want to preview a kml file before you download to your PC? Simply drag and drop the kml link onto the minimap sidebar to display its contents. You can also drag and drop a georss feed to display it's contents. Viewing not enough? You can import kml or gpx files and all the placemarks/waypoints will be added to your address list. Export address list items to a csv, gps or kml file (ideal for Google MyMaps import). Read MoreWeb Services
