Strip Map Generator

This is a specification and generator for simple strip maps. This repository has an associated GitHub pages website.

Features

  • Dynamic placement of stations based on number of stations
  • Customizable station icons
  • Support for SVG icons
  • Support for multiple lines of text

Setup

To use this tool, we recommend downloading one of our (future) releases and including it in a webpage where you want to embed a map.

You will need to also include JavaScript containing the data structures containing the line and icon information.

Alternatively, you can use a CDN, but this is currently discouraged due to the rapidly changing nature of the specification.
