Culture Mapping and Creative Cities

On May 1st 2012 the City of Mississauga launched www.cultureonthemap.ca in collaboration with ThinkWrap Solutions; a leading provider of Google Maps solutions and a Google Products Partner.

The Culture Map platform allows your city to increase awareness of your vibrant cultural community by allowing that same community to publish and share your city’s cultural assets on a map featuring your city’s own branding.

Canada’s Economic Action Plan

Our team has created the following Google Flash Map to present Canada’s Economic Action Plan. This map includes all projects from Canada’s Economic Action Plan. See where you tax dollars have been spent! The map allows you to filter by project types such as federal labs or recreational infrastructure, by project funding or by political party. The map also lets you combine multiple filters together to fine tune your results and hone in to the data you need.

Bring our Campus Map solution to your university

What if we told you that we can provide you with a Google Map for your campus with custom tiles and even custom paths and routes for “Get Directions”? Our Campus Map can route you through buildings, along overpasses, between buildings and even across parking lots. We did that for the University of Ottawa campus map, along with shortest and warmest paths and different points of interest across three campuses. Watch our Campus Map Demo to see it all in action.
