Hi.  
I’m making a general app to read lots of different items POI (Point of interest) and place them on a map.  
Since the app read all kinds of POI I cannot place assets to local storage.

What I would like is a IconURL=“[https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/full/images/beachflag.png](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/full/images/beachflag.png)” parameter to the MapMarker.

This so that I can do:

> MapMarker Latitude=“{lat}” Longitude=“{lng}” Label=“{title}” IconURL=“{UrlToicon}”

The list of POI is read from this URL [https://data.smartbydata.no/api/3/action/package\_search?fq=tags:Kart](https://data.smartbydata.no/api/3/action/package_search?fq=tags:Kart)

Regards  
Terje

Hi Terje,

this indeed sounds like a nice feature to have. It is now added to the list of things to consider when improving `MapMarker`s. You’ll get notified here when there is some progress.
