Charge for Power Functions

In order to continue providing a reliable, scalable mapping service, we have to start charging for certain power functions:

• Bulk Edits (Annotations, Markers, Regions)
• Delete ALL Markers, Delete Some Markers

A fully functional ZeeMaps remain free. Non-power users can edit or delete individual markers, annotations, or regions.

If you need to use the power functions, please sign-in to ZeeMaps, and upgrade your account using the Account link at the bottom of your map or My Maps page. You can pay for three ($9.95/month), six ($7.95/month), or twelve ($6.95/month) months at a time.
      
Use the Upgrade button in the Accounts dialog box to make your payment through PayPal.

Once you upgrade the power functions will be activated for all your maps.

Google Ads will not show on the ZeeMaps server for power users. The ads may still show on your published maps, which you can remove using the "Map->Subscribe" menu item.

Automatic Updates from Google Spreadsheet

ZeeMaps has the ability to directly import data from your Google Spreadsheet on your map. To upload a Google Spreadsheet, use the Additions -> Upload CSV menu item. In the resulting dialog box, click on the link that says "Use Google Spreadsheet xxxx".

Make sure that:

1. Your spreadsheet is named ZeeMap-xxx, where xxx is your map number. For example, if your map number is 306, the spreadsheet should be named ZeeMap-306.
2. The user zeemaps@gmail.com should have read access to your spreadsheet.

When you upload a Google Spreadsheet, in the confirmation dialog box (step 2 of the upload process), there is a checkbox at the bottom that says "Regularly update from Google Spreadsheet." If you check this box, then your changes to the Google Spreadsheet will be automatically reflected in your map.

Only row changes are supported, so you cannot change the columns of your spreadsheet. If you add or remove a column, then you must do another upload of the spreadsheet and then the updates will work properly.

We will be doing updates of the spreadsheets every four hours. Please let us know if you'd like to see the updates done more frequently.

Highlight Regions in Australia, Canada, China or USA

You can highlight regions of Australia (e.g., Victoria, Queensland), Canada (provinces), China (e.g., Hunan, Jiangshu) and USA (states, cities) on ZeeMaps. Use the Additions -> Highlight Region menu item and then select the appropriate country and state in the resulting Add Region dialog.

We support state-level region additions in Australia, China, Canada and USA. For USA we also support cities. You can also highlight regions at the country level for any country.
