Welcome to the ZeeMaps World of Maps

Map making is an ancient art and science, dependent on complex mathematics, cartography, and surveying.

In the early days, specialized cartographers hand-made maps, based on calculations and data available through enormous hard work and labor.

With modern technology, anyone, with only a basic understanding of computers, can make and use customized maps, adding to the world of maps.

Our goal at ZeeMaps is to provide you with the simplest mechanisms to create your own customized maps with minimal effort. We give you options such as crowd-sourcing map data, or directly uploading and synchronizing from spreadsheets. You can use maps created with ZeeMaps in the myriad ways that people have traditionally used maps, or put them to more innovative use with the new technology and all that it entails, e.g., get a visceral sense of location data, convey geographical reach to colleagues, friends, customers, search through a prospects list, and so forth. We provide you with the technology to create maps — what you do with it is up to you.

ZeeMaps is used by tens of thousands of users daily to create thousands of maps.

We are usually not aware of the maps in our world of maps, unless someone notifies us through an email, or a support call. Sometimes a map comes to our attention when it gains prominence in the social web.

In the maps gallery, we’ve pulled together maps that highlight different capabilities of ZeeMaps, or demonstrate use cases that might not be otherwise obvious. This is an ongoing effort. We’ll add more maps to this gallery as we discover interesting samples.

If you’ve made an exciting map, or have seen one, please let us know through the comments and we’ll review it for the gallery.

We are constantly working to improve ZeeMaps to make it more useful and easier to use. If there’s something that you’d like us to add to ZeeMaps, or modify, tell us.

  1. I have used this for work purposes. I had to sort over 30 locations around London for site visits. I dont know the area very well , zeemap – you saved me hours of planning! Plus i could email the map to the drivers with colour coded groups of locations. Fantastic!!!

  2. Hi Bob,

    Thanks for the feedback. Glad to know that ZeeMaps has been helpful in this important literacy project. We’ll post your comment on our testimonials page as well.

  3. On behalf of the stewards and patrons of Lincoln, Nebraska’s Little Free Libraries I can’t thank you enough for this wonderful free mapping service. You’ve helped us grow the Little Free Library phenomenon and literacy in Lincoln more than you could ever know.

  4. Brilliant service – fair pricing.

    I tried mapbox but it was a bit techy/dev focused. For a mid-level web admin like me, this is ideal. Its feature loaded and serves my exact purpose. The initial feedback from my site users is positive.
    Its always refreshing to find a functioning, bug free, user friendly solution to a problem I’ve been trying to overcome for some months.

    Great work Zee Maps.

    1. Can you send a link to the map so we can take a look? It might be that you need to click on the “lens” icon.

  5. My daughter has cancer. I would like to publish a map to Facebook that show/allow “friends” who are praying for her to pin their location. Also can they pin their location and possibly add a comment to their pin?

    1. Hi, Please create a map with ZeeMaps and then use the Print or Share -> Publish in Website to get code to add to Facebook to publish the map allowing additions.

  6. Hi, the maps are the same whether you sign-up for the Basic or Professional plans. It is only what kind of tools you have at your disposal to create and modify the maps that is different for the different plans.

  7. I just want to say, this is an awesome site! I’ve made a meetup map for members of MLP Forums. The purpose of the map is to provide an easy to use, central location for members to find each other and arrange meetups. It eliminates the need for members to create individual “Is there anyone living in ‘x’?” threads. It also gives us forum staff an additional form of member statistics by providing a general geographic picture of where our members are located. I don’t really care whether our map is added to the gallery or not because it’s really only useful for members of the forums, but I just wanted to tell you guys how useful it is to us.

  8. I paid for an addition of upload adds to 1,000. I uploaded a spreadsheet but need to delete the upload and start over. It tells me to upgrade my account. Please help me figure out how to delete and start over. Thank you. Molly

    1. Hi Molly, you need to sign-up for the Professional Plan to be able to delete multiple entries on a map. Alternatively, you can create a new map and upload the spreadsheet to the new map.
