ZeeMaps enforces an upload limit for uploading geographical location data through spreadsheets. The upload limit is such that after a spreadsheet upload, the number of entries on your map cannot exceed your upload limit.
Until recently, our Basic (free) plan allowed up to 500 entries to be uploaded per map. Starting today, due to increased operational costs, the upload limit for Basic plan will be set to 100.
This limit does not apply if your data already contains location information (latitude, longitude), or if you add markers one by one (e.g., through crowd source).
Please let us know if you need some time to adjust to this change.

Re-Positioning or Relocating Markers
Sometimes when you add a marker on a map. It is not positioned exactly where you’d like it to be positioned. There could be many reasons for this: e.g., the address information was not geo coded correctly. Or, you do not want to position the marker on the exact address. or there are multiple markers on a location and you’d like to tease them apart.
ZeeMaps allows you to drag-and-drop markers to reposition them.
To enable drag-and-drop, click on the marker. In the resulting information bubble, click on the first icon to the right bottom of the information bubble.
This should allow you to drag-and-drop the marker to its new location.
Revised Subscription and Pay-per-Use Pricing
We have revised our subscription and pay-per-use pricing to provide more flexible options. Frequent users of ZeeMaps will benefit from subscribing to one of our plans, while occasional users can take advantage of the Pay-per-Use options for one off purchases.
You can see the details on our Pricing page.

Upload spreadsheet to a map: New Video
We’ve recently released a 2-minute video demonstrating how to upload your spreadsheet data to a map on ZeeMaps.
The video creates a map of hotels and dining establishments in Austin, Texas. We create a new map, upload the spreadsheet to the map, adjust the column assignments and submit. Within a few minutes we have a map of over 150 locations! It also demonstrates how we can use a “Category” column to get different colored markers.
Check it out and let us know what you think.
Now accepting Excel (.xls, xlsx) files
For bulk uploading of multiple markers on maps, ZeeMaps now accepts Excel files (.xls, .xlsx).
This is in addition to the Comma Separated Values (CSV) files, Google Spreadsheets, and copy-and-paste, that ZeeMaps already accepts.
To upload your Excel spreadsheet, use the Additions > Add Multiple Markers > Upload Spreadsheet menu item on your map, and follow the instructions.
