Something I have wanted to do for years, as a location scout and location manager, is to have an easily-web-accessible film zone map to use for reference.
Maybe I need to back up a little?
Q: What is the Film Zone?
A: The “Film Zone(s) “are the boundaries set by several NYC based worker’s unions, guilds, and organizations chapters defining the area(s) in which they will work locally. The radius varies a few miles by organization from a 25 to 30 mile radius generally emanating from Columbus Circle in New York City, NY; for the sake of simplicity I have used the 25 mile zone; if you are inside this zone, presumably, you are safe inside the 30 mile zone as well.
Thanks to the Google Maps API and GPVisualizer it was pretty easy to create a map with a circle overlay and tweak the html just a little so it would display on my website.
