Gnavi

The Gnavi module was developed in order to draw up a local area guide. It's released with a nice feature to map your articles with personalized icons on your Google Maps.

Gnavi module is based on MyAlbum-P by Gijoe, D3 and XOOPS_TRUST_PATH.

Since Gnavi became Duplicatable V3 you can improve your site interoperability by installing the comment function for d3forum integration.

There's a few more features that i'm sure you will be glad to discover reading more ^^
