" Nowadays, millions of companies, organizations and government agencies feature a flash map as a part in the websites. Flash maps provide an effective way of displaying data associated with various locations of a specified geographical location. These maps have become significant part in web applications, by helping the user to interact with the data with a simple rollover of the mouse", said Godfrey Ko, Director of company, "In the past, only professional graphic designer, actionscript programmer and web programmers can use advanced software to create interactive maps. Now non technical users with zero knowledge in programming can take advantage of convenience afforded by this map software."
The map is accompanied by the Points and Lines function, where users can plot unlimited clickable points, icons, straight lines and curve on the map, as well as customize the descriptions displayed in infobox and tooltips when mouseover.
The flash maps are perfectly applicable for the business websites in which they can show sales statistic figures of different States, store locator, traveling route, property finder, branch offices, etc to their visitors. For example, a travel agency can use the flash maps to provide information about various travel destination, and users can get the accommodation fees, location of restaurants with images with just a rollover of mouse. To enjoy the maximum flexibility, advanced Adobe Flash programmers can purchase the FLA source code file to make extensive modifications for map templates.
