In EGEA we have an inflatable crocodile called Schnappi that travels around to different places along with members of EGEA. As I wanted to see Schnappis travels in a simple way I googled “time map” and found exactly what I wanted in the Timemap javascript library. It was easy to customize one of the Timemap examples to my needs. I chose to go with a kml file for the location and timeframe data, as that seemed the easiest to me, and I also chose to go with Openstreetmap as I like their maps and I didn’t need a API key to use it. The result can be seen here.
