I am new here and just come across the post with the link to the Orlando map - it's a great idea and very useful. Thank you for your hard work.

Snippet:

Nice work..fyi, Hyatt Sunset Harbor[Key West, FL] is misplaced. The address is correct, however the stick pin should be located just west of Mallory Square [just to the left of the "Reflections of Ocean Key" pin].

Great idea, good work. One minor note, you missed the new Hyatt timeshare in San Antonio.

Nice maps of Scotland and England! I like them.

Thanks PA. I added it. And to have missed it when it is the closest resort to my own home!

I didn't even notice that you were from San Antonio, as am I. I live at Sonterra Country Club.

Well I've done it. I've got the entire US dotted with timeshares and you can see them at my new Timeshare Map page. I had to rewrite the javascript to keep in line with the new version that Google released. While doing that I also combined the individual pages into one page with buttons at the top for the different regions. I wish I could just dump all the US markers onto the map, but it chokes when there are large quantities of markers and I'm right at that limit.

It works in Internet Explorer, it works in Firefox.

I added a few new colors to make it easier to select II and point/weeks, plus an 'other' marker for other timeshares that aren't really timeshares. I haven't really used this 'other' marker much, but I'm thinking I'll put the RCI timeshares marked Rentals in that category.

I have found that not all the timeshares are in the TUG database. My next task is to go through the RCI and II catalogs and add the missing timeshares.

I'll be taking the other pages offline soon.

Great job, Carol. This is a terrific tool!

Absolutely agree. Incredible effort to put this together. Is it possible to put the link onto the TUG system somewhere prominent. The work done certainly deserves that IMHO.

Yes indeed, we have talked with Carol through email and plan on putting up a link to this within the tug review pages.

All resorts should be within TUG, however those with no review or rating will not show up in a search.

If you find a discrepancy, please let me know asap and we will get it added! =)

Only resorts which have been added by RCI or II since the database was populated early in 2005 should be missing. You may also find that various phases of a resort, although possibly having different resort IDs fall under a single entry in the TUG database. That is true particularly of II resorts. No resorts which aren't part of the II or RCI systems are added automatically. The Review Reps for the various areas have to add them manually.

Ah, that explains it. I was going through the Resort Reviews page to populate the map. It was the best source for me. I will let you know which resorts I add but they may already be in your database.

Yes Keith, there are quite a few IDs all within the same resort. Some with identical names, others with new names. If the TUG list has one resort with several IDs, that's how I kept it as well.
