How to Design a Map Online

    • 1). Navigate to the Planiglobe website in the References section.

    • 2). Click the "Add Places" link on the left. In the white text box, type the latitude, longitude, and label for your place in the following order:

      lat1, long1, place1
      lat2, long2, place2
      lat3, long3, place3
      ...etc

      If you don't know any latitudes and longitudes off the top of your head, navigate to the link in the Resources section entitled "Latitudes and Longitudes of World Cities."

    • 3). Click the red "Check" button to make sure your data looks good. If your data passes the check, click "Submit." You will see your places mapped on the world map. Click the plus or minus buttons on the top right of the map to zoom in or zoom out as much as you'd like.

    • 4). To download your map, click the "postscript map" link on the right. Click the "I Agree" text box, and then click "Submit." Your map will then download to your computer.
