Build your own interactive map

An interactive map is one visitors can click, filter and search — a very different thing from a static image. With localthings you build one yourself, without code, in your own branding.

Short answer
  • An interactive map is clickable: visitors open locations, filter by category and search within it. A static map image cannot do that.
  • You need no code for it. You type locations in, or import them from a CSV or Excel list.
  • Categories with their own colours and icons decide how visitors filter the map.
  • You publish it as a shareable link or as an embed on your own website.
  • Free to start; a custom domain and white-label are in the paid plans.

How it works

  1. 1

    Add your locations

    Type addresses in, or import them all at once from a CSV file. Every location becomes a pin on the map.

  2. 2

    Give the map your style

    Pick a map style, set up categories with their own colours and icons, and add your logo.

  3. 3

    Share or embed

    Share the map with a link, or embed it in your own website with a snippet of code.

Build this yourself in Studio
