Future development
Current Roadmap
Include stylised maps for Leaflet, using own Tile Servers (Likely to be free or paid for service depending on your data usage).
Implement http://humangeo.github.io/leaflet-tilefilter
Adding an ArcGIS, CartoDB & MapBox providers - likely to charge for these providers, to recupe development and cover maintance costs (My thinking is better to have working providers for money, than broken providers for free)
Allow Null Position maps, so allowing maps that have no current location. This includes allowing null position as the starting location of a map
Source code
Download the source code, it should work for Visual Studio 2013 & 2015. If you set Terratype.TestSite as your Set as Startup project this should execute the test Umbraco website, where you can test maps under different scenarios. Once running, surf to http://localhost:60389/umbraco and at the login type admin for user and password for password.
