Research: Embedded maps
Sites
A. Zillow.com
B. Wallmart.com
C. Bestbuy.com
How map feature was created
A. Embedded Bing maps, javascript, css, pop ups <head id> <div> <wrapper>
B. Embedded Google maps, Same as zillow but it links to store info
C. Embedded Bing maps, Cycles through a list with pre-set animation when store pin is clicked on.
I think that option A. The way that zillow.com did their map is the best fit for our clients needs however, I am not sure that it will be very easy for the client to maintain. However option B may be easier to maintain due to it not popping up an entire page, Instead it just loads a separate box on the side with a picture and some text for information. Personally i think using option B will be the most simple but even then i am not entirely sure how that works.
