add instructions for installation
== Web-Based Mapping In Your HDA ==
With the '''maps''' app you can add some web-based mapping to your HDA! It uses the popular open source [http://openlayers.org OpenLayers] web mapping framework.

== Installation ==
This application can be eaily installed using the (currently in Alpha testing) web-apps tab in your HDA setup. Define the new web app, then unzip the package into the appropriate folder. Here are the steps.
Go to the [http://hda/setup?sub=0&tab=webapps Web Apps Setup Tab] and define a new app. Calls it '''maps''' for the sake of these install instructions.

Note that '''Root Path''' that it creates automatically for you. This is where you will install that maps application package. After clicking '''Create''' you should see your configuration in the web-apps list.

=== Downloading the Application Package ===
Download the compressed package from [http://spatialguru.com/files/amahi/maps.tgz spatialguru.com]. It is recommended to do this from the command line in the Amahi server. You will need to know your '''root''' password and use a command line or terminal to access it. Using shares may be possible too, but has not been explored. This will be automated in the future.

[Note the image shows the file saved as maps.tgz.1, but you can ignore that :) ]
The '''tar''' command will unpack a bunch of files. When the listing stops, then you can issue the '''hdactl-hup''' command to restart some services to recognise your new app.

Then goto [http://maps http://maps] and you should see your new mapping service!
'''ENJOY!''' Leave questions on the [[Talk:Maps | talk page for this app]]!
