Video To Google Maps

Add Video to Google Maps


If you have a Google account and have created a map of your own, you can embed videos in the map to serve as information markers or as interesting tidbits of information to share with friends. Whenever you click on a placeholder on a map, a video pops up and plays directly over the map interface.


Instructions


1. Go to www.google.com and click on the "Sign in" link near the top right of the page.


2. Sign in with your Google account information and then click on "My Maps."


3. Click the "Create a new map" link, type in a title and description for your map and set the map to be either public or private.


4. Click on the placemark button and add a marker to your map where you want your video to be. Click on the placemark again and click on "Edit" and then click on "Edit HTML."


5. Paste in the embedding code for your video into the description field and click "OK." Your video has now been added to your Google Maps map.
