Pipes Powered Maps On Your Site

We worked with the Yahoo! Maps team to put together two examples that demonstrate how you can take the output from a Pipe containing GeoData and overlay its content on a Y! Map. Using these examples, you can learn how you can start putting Pipes powered Maps on your website.

The Pipe being called in the below examples is called Where2 with flickr. This Pipe aggregates event listings in the San Francisco Bay Area from upcoming.org. Then, uses the location information for each event to search Y! Local for nearby restaurants and flickr for nearby pictures. The output of this Pipe contains all the data you need to decide where to head out to!

Both examples demonstrate how to take the output from a Pipe and overly its data on a Y! Map:

To learn more about how each example was made you can view there respective sources. There’s more information about the Yahoo! Maps AJAX API on the Yahoo! Developer Network website. If you have specific questions about the Y! Maps AJAX API we suggest you visit the yws-maps-ajax mailing list.

We’re eager to answer any questions you might have about these examples so start a thread anytime on the Pipes Message Boards.

Yahoo Pipes


Pipes is an interactive data aggregator and manipulator that lets you mashup your favorite online data sources.

Like Unix pipes, simple commands can be combined together to create output that meets your needs:

  • combine many feeds into one, then sort, filter and translate to create your ultimate custom feed.
  • geocode your favorite feeds and browse the items on an interactive map.
  • remix your favorite data sources and use the Pipe to power a new application.
  • build custom vertical search pages that are impossible with ordinary search engines.
  • power badges on your web site.
  • extend your web site by accessing the JSON or RSS output from Pipes.

Hillsong Concert in Cagayan De Oro 2007


The experience I got or should I say we got is very beautiful. the presence of the holy spirit at that night is really tremendous. all night we praise and worship Jesus Christ, letting us remember the sacrifice he made just to save us from sin. I have been to a lot of different secular concerts and may I say that it will really could not compare to the experience I have when I attended this concert. all the people are moved by the holy spirit and all are very glad. I am hoping and praying that they will held a concert here in davao city.
