Web mapping

Web mapping or online mapping is the process of using, creating, and distributing maps on the World Wide Web, usually through the use of Web geographic information systems. A web map or an online map is both served and consumed, thus, web mapping is more than just web cartography; it is an interactive service where consumers may choose what the map will show.
