This is a little helper module to filter searches by the user's location, using a variety of methods to determine that location:
We are using this on a couple sites. Far from polished or usable, and subject to drastic change. Here more to test the git sandbox of Drupal as much as anything...
All the "similar content" modules out there find your similar contents based on Taxonomy.
Well, this one doesn't.
It finds your similar content based on the nodes' locations.
When you have Location module enabled, you will be able to find your similar content based on street, country or even more. And even better, this module allows you to choose which content types you want to show on each nodes' content type.
Provides a static map formatter for the geofield and (soon) location modules. Both Google Maps and OpenStreetMap are supported.
Currently, the only settings that you can change are the map size and type, but map API's seem to have the ability to play with all kinds of changes, which can and should be added to this project. Patches welcome. :-)
The gnode project provides a new entity type that is specifically designed for the collection and storage of data that is intended to be displayed on maps. In the past, this has been accomplished in Drupal with CCK fields, but the use of an entity provides several advantages.
Location chooser allows users to choose a location for a new node from a set of existing locations in other nodes. For example, if you have a content type for "facilities" and you add a new "event," the event's creator could be allowed to choose one of the existing facilities as the location of the event. Locations may be chosen from any of the following:
Ebird Near is a module that allows access to information regarding where birds have been seen nearby. A Drupal site with this module (Ebird Near) , CCK, and the Location module enabled can use a node's location coordinates in an Ajax request to the Ebird API and subsequently retrieve and display a table of locations that are near, bird species at the locations, and a date of observation.
Users of Ebird Near must conform to the terms set forth by Cornell University in the Ebird API.
This module allows you to attach additional fields to locations provided by the Locations module. It adds the following fields:
Expose available OpenLayers presets as a field and then display the map when viewing an entity.
Integration with the Modest Maps, display and interaction library for tile-based maps in Javascript.
