  17. Internet Mapping • A mapping service allows you to create maps on their server, on the internet. You don’t need any special programs downloaded because you are creating a map on a server that provides you with the ability to interact with their software and data. • These types of sites vary with features – with some allowing you only basic input, whereas others support customizable legends, titles, and selective datasets.
