New Map Solution for the UI-Webserver

Microsoft has stopped the free map service from mapblast/vicinity.com which was used to generate the maps on FindU and for the UI-View32 Web Server.

Thanks to Luc, ON1GL, a provisional map solution had been implemented on the server which allowed to see European stations' locations at street level and to zoom in and out. Luc's solution did not provide an integration of the maps in the information pages of the WebServer as it had been the case initially. Therefore many UI-Webserver still show the three empty white images with 'improper settings' in the middle.

I'm using a solution similar to the original UI-Webserver.  You can see the results and the integration with the UI-View WebServer here, as well as on all the information page for fixed, mobile and WX stations on this server. The maps show street level for a large part of Europe and North America.

With the availability of other maps on the Web, e.g. Google maps, the coverage is rapidly improving.

The solution only requires to change some HTML code on the three information pages in the 'Special Pages' folder. If you are interested to know more about this, click here.
