Feature improves functionality for a wide variety of enterprise Web applications. 

Software tool developer mrc has announced new Google Maps integration for m-Power, the software development tool designed for use by developers and non-developers alike. m-Power modernizes legacy applications and rapidly creates Web applications such as report-writing, business intelligence, executive dashboards, e-commerce, customer portals, and wireless applications to name a few. 

mrc recently enhanced m-Power with Google Maps integration to improve functionality for a wide variety of enterprise Web applications. m-Power users can now chart their data directly into a Google Maps embedded in their applications. This functionality is very useful for Web applications such as the following:

  • Product purchase map: Integrate a map into a product listing app on your website and show potential customers where products can be purchased.
  • Shipping visualization: Create a Web app to track shipments, monitor your fleet, or allow your customers to view shipping progress on a map.
  • Executive dashboard: Embed a map into an executive dashboard for a clear picture of which areas are performing well and which are performing poorly.

"What's great about the new Google Maps functionality, besides the obvious benefits they provide to Web apps, is how easy they are to use," says Brian Crowley, mrc's director of development. "Just like the m-Power interface, integrating a map into your Web application is nothing but point-and-click."
