Re: FRC Teams Google Maps Directory

Good idea.

Although I have some a thought. I think there should be a standardization of the color of the marking pins. I came up with a little something below to begin with.

Teams = blue marker
Kick Offs = blue pin*
Regionals = red marker
Team hosted events = green marker
training sessions = yellow marker
FTC teams/events = pink marker
FLL events = lite blue marker

and then maybe when regionals start kicking in, you can have the campfire marker for hotels around that area. And have a list of teams that are staying at that hotel.

When mark a regional. It might be nice to put a link to the team list, and date of the regional.

Also, I don't think that pictures need to be markers, to make sure people know whats going on at just a glance. Markers enable this, pictures take up more space, you really have to zoom in to see what the picture is. Just a thought though.

Again I think that this is a great idea for it to be open for others to edit.
