A (very simple) gem for all your mapping needs

easymap allows you to quickly get setup with the Nokia Ovi Maps API. Convert Open Office spreadsheets with geographic coordinates into interactive heatmaps. Create maps with multiple circular and polygon overlays.



  1. To start, you must register your app. Go to the Nokia Developer site, signup, and obtain the necessary token and app ID keys
  2. After obtaining these, open your bash_profile and set the keys (e.g. export APP_ID=yourf332password2342here). Save the bash_profile file then reload all terminal windows.
  3. Add 'easymap' to your gemfile and run 'bundle:install'. You will now have access to "rails g ovimap:install". Running this command will install the js files to your assets path.
