Overview

Bring your locator into environments where connectivity is not guaranteed

Static maps let teams publish a packaged locator version with selected data, theme, and features. It is useful for in-store kiosks, event terminals, internal networks, external servers, and operations that need to reduce real-time API dependency.

Predictable performance

Static files load quickly from CDNs, simple servers, and local devices, reducing latency caused by dynamic calls.

Higher reliability

The locator remains available in stores, kiosks, and low-connectivity environments even when the network is unstable.

Offline operation

Teams can prepare experiences for fairs, showrooms, reception desks, and service points where internet access can fail.

Feature control

The export lets administrators decide what enters the package, including theme, data, media, and whether AI search is available.

Export options

Choose the right package for each environment

Administrators can generate a lightweight static map for simple directories or a more complete package for in-store and kiosk experiences.

Where to use it

From the public website to the store counter

The same location base can support very different experiences. Static export reduces operational dependencies without forcing the business to rebuild its locator from scratch.

Kiosks and stores

Self-service terminals to find departments, dealers, or service points
Sales tablets with a catalog of branches and partners
Showrooms that need to work despite unstable Wi-Fi
Events and trade shows with shared or limited networks

External servers

Hosting on owned or partner infrastructure
CDN delivery to reduce global latency
Integration into corporate sites with strict network rules
Environments where direct calls to the public API are not desired

Low connectivity

Regions with unstable mobile connections
Stores in malls, warehouses, or locations with weak signal
Operations that need a consistent experience during traffic spikes
Contingency plans for important campaigns and launches

How to generate it

Export a static version in six steps

The workflow stays simple: review data, choose features, generate the package, and publish it where it makes sense for your business.

Review published locations

Confirm entries, coordinates, categories, hours, contacts, and links are up to date before generating the package.

Adjust the public theme

Use the visual editor to validate desktop and mobile layout, pins, colors, filters, cards, and header behavior included in the static version.

Open static export

In the locator admin panel, open the publishing or export area and choose to generate a static map.

Choose included features

Select data, images, filters, and search behavior. Include AI search only when the target environment can make external calls.

Generate and test the package

Download or publish the export, open it on desktop and mobile, and test search, filters, pins, and location details before distribution.

Host and update when needed

Upload files to an external server, CDN, intranet, or local device. Generate a new version whenever locations, theme, or search rules change.

Use cases

Consistent experiences for companies of any size

Static maps help small teams that need a simple directory and larger operations that require control, scale, and contingency.

Retail and franchises

Offer store, service, or pickup search on kiosks and tablets inside the physical store.

Events and tourism

Publish maps of points, booths, attractions, and partners in environments with shared networks or limited access.

Industry and distribution

Deliver distributor and reseller directories on partner servers without relying on real-time integration.

Healthcare, education, and services

Create local lookup experiences for branches, campuses, clinics, or service points with high operational availability.
