##Instructions for finding a youtube video for your map

  • Find a video of Berlin in youTube or any other source with a Creative Commons license. For example, St. Nicholas' Church, Berlin, Germany by Igor Skoglund.

  • Click Share. Click Embed. Copy the embedded url: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/uKlPfgi8xHw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

  • Edit the link width to 180 and delete the height variable. You will also want to delete the 's' from 'https:' and add a double quote around your code. Make sure all of your code matches the following format with slashes as well. For example : "<iframe width='180' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/uKlPfgi8xHw' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen></iframe>"

  • Find the Latitude and Longitude of the video you want to use with Google Maps. Make sure you are using decimal degrees.

  • Copy a "feature" from the existing GeoJson. For example,

  • Edit the GeoJSON to reflect the information about your new point and image. Be sure to include official title and authorial credit in the description of the image. For example,

  {
 "type": "Feature",
 "properties": {
   "title": "Berlin Victory Column",
   "series": "Spring 2016",
   "tour": "1920",
   "marker-size": "medium",
   "marker-color": "#3366FF",
   "marker-symbol": "star-stroked",
   "images": [
     [
       "<iframe width='180'  src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/H4wnh2osfGI' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen></iframe>",
       "Siegessäule, Berlin. Each of the three original columns represents a victory over the Danish, a victory over the Austrians, and a victory over the French."
     ],
     [
     "<img src='https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bd/Kanzler21a.jpg/320px-Kanzler21a.jpg' />",
     "This is a picture of the new chancellary."
     ]
   ]
 },
 "geometry": {
   "type": "Point",
   "coordinates": [
     13.3725,
     52.5186
   ]
 }
}
  • After saving everything, you should be ready to add your point to the map database using the Postman directions!
