Create a link between post codes and Google maps & Environmental Agency flood check

When quoting a risk it is useful to go onto Google maps to check the location and identify location when also looking at the Environmental flood maps  and if this could all appear on the same screen it would be easier to handle

Hi Graham,

That's a fantastic idea and not all that hard for us to implement.  I bet you'll get a few users clicking 'Me too!' on this one.

Best wishes,

 

Adam

Perhaps this map could also plot the nearest 5 or so cases to show agregation issues?

We propose to create a new scheme for Motor Trade, and one of the common issues we get is that the "Applicant" gives an address of his "alleged" sales plot. This invariably leads us to check the location on Google Maps (street view) to find that he is selling his 75 cars from a back yard as part of a terraced block in the middle of Croydon.... single click links from the the postcode to google maps would be really useful.... and lets face it.. would be really cool as well !!!   brownie points for Adam :)

There are now plugins for Google Maps and Environmental Agency Flood Checking over in our plugins forum. You'll need to be using Labs to use them. They're here...
