You may have noticed that 'Google My Maps' have shown up in your google drive. I was able to attend a session at MACUL's Googlefest this past month and picked up some great tips from Kelly Kermode, a technology coach for Forest Hills Schools.
Below is an overview on how to import data into a Google My Map. Once you have mastered this skill there are numerous practical uses to explore!

Google My Maps are part of the 'More' panel within the 'New' button of Google drive.

 |
| When you launch 'Google My Maps' you have a blank map to make your own. The quickest way to plot multiple data points is to import them as a layer. The map view itself can be changed (to terrain for example) by selecting the down arrow next to 'Base Map.' |
 |
| After you press the import button, you are prompted to find the file you would like to use. As you can see in the image .csv, .xlsx, .kml, or .gpx files may be used - or a Google Sheet from your Google Drive. Spreadsheets with concise column headers work best. |

I imported a Google sheet from my Drive. The column headers show up with a checkbox next to them. The first step now that the data has been linked is to choose where the placemarks will be placed. You are able to select multiple columns. In this example I selected city, state, address, and zip.
Here is what the finished map looked like based on the data that I imported. I was alerted that there were several rows unable to be mapped - I went in and checked for grammar and was able to resolve this issue. I could also have chosen to place the pins manually by selecting one from above and placing it where I wanted.

Google My Maps provide a great tool for building geographic awareness. Students could create a walking tour of their local area, visit far away lands, or something in between. A school leader might map all their student addresses to find the most efficient drop off points for transportation. A therapist that conducts home visits may use my maps to create a visual guide for planning their travel. A manager of several employees may map their caseloads to find an equitable geographic balance. Google My Maps are even accessible within maps.google.com so not only can you create the perfect road trip, you can also follow it.
Google My Maps are another tool for your arsenal, one I encourage you to dig into today!
