About this plugin
OtrosMapas Viewer for Kobo is a WordPress plugin that allows you to create, manage, and display interactive maps using GeoJSON data and multimedia files packaged in ZIP archives. The plugin integrates with the Leaflet Map plugin to render maps and provides customizable shortcodes for easy embedding in WordPress pages and posts.
The plugin is designed to simplify the visualization of KoboToolbox data and other GeoJSON datasets in WordPress.
Main Features
- Map Creation – Upload GeoJSON files and ZIP archives to generate interactive maps.
- Media Management – Automatically organize images, audio, and video associated with map points.
- Validated ZIP Imports – Accept approved image, audio, video, PDF, Word, and Excel files after validating their type and size.
- Popup Configuration – Select which GeoJSON fields appear in map popups.
- Search and Grouping – Define searchable fields and clustering behavior.
- Shortcode Generator – Automatically generate shortcodes to embed maps.
- User-Friendly Interface – Manage maps directly from the WordPress admin panel.
This plugin is particularly useful for projects that collect field data using KoboToolbox and need to visualize that information on interactive maps within WordPress.
Advanced ZIP limits
By default, ZIP imports accept up to 500 entries, 100 MB per extracted file, and 500 MB of total uncompressed content. Site administrators can adapt these limits to their infrastructure using the kobomaps_zip_max_files, kobomaps_zip_max_file_size, and kobomaps_zip_max_total_size filters.
For example, the following code allows up to 1 GB of total uncompressed content:
add_filter( 'kobomaps_zip_max_total_size', function() { return GB_IN_BYTES; } );
