Bilders Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Hey guys, Just thought I'd share a location Map I've been working on: https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=932191 The colours have had no structure yet. Just a mix of them all! I think you guys can make tag suggestions for me to approve. Give it a try if you like! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieGlide Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 WOW! If this is accurate, and I have no idea if it is or it isn't, this is really awesome. I need this for my long time waiting Miami Vice pilgrimage. Very cool...good work! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilders Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I have tried to be as accurate as possible. That includes trying to put markers in an exact spot for isolated incidents such as: - Bobby and Jake get shot across Ocean Drive- Burnett shoots Tubbs- Eddie and Corby get blown up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilders Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 The awesome thing about this is that it uses Google Maps. This means I can see the street and satellite views and pinpoint a marker that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James Posted May 20, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Nice map. It'll come in handy when/if I visit Miami. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Edited May 20, 2014 by SL1DE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilders Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 You're most welcome! It's still a work in progress. I have been soundly bias towards the episodes that are my favourites to start off with. Veterans will see that there are a lot of gaps. If you guys want me to be more detailed with my marker descriptions let me know. Though I have a feeling you will all understand them 100%!

Administrators James Posted May 20, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Wow... Google Earth has 'Photo Sheres' around some of the locations, like the Cape Florida lighthouse for example. The scene in Calderone's Return Part 1 where Sonny and Caroline are walking along that concrete wall and Billy is playing in the sand. There isn't much sand there anymore though. https://www.google.com.au/maps/@25.666291,-80.15686,3a,75y,150.34h,89.94t/data=!3m5!1e1!3m3!1s_Hw1wyuvtH4AAAQWg8lIfA!2e0!3e11You can move the camera around in a 360 degree view.

Administrators James Posted May 20, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Oh cool. I'll add some locations from Definitely Miami. Added:Pool Scene, 4343 Collins Ave. Phil the Shil - Phil's House Edited May 20, 2014 by SL1DE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metro-Dade Police Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Nice work! When I was in Miami this winter, I noticed something about the surrounding in which my hotel was located - it was from a scene in S02E15. I will add a marker and details about that scene when I get home from work. Keep up the good work Bilders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilders Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm not sure if we can sort them based on episodes. I think there's more features to this than I am presently aware. I may start changing marker colours based on season. I just liked being able to mix up the colours to make everything stand out more.

Administrators James Posted May 21, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Depending on how many colours there are to choose from, you might be able to sort them as one colour for the first half or quarter of the season, and another for the rest.

Bilders Posted May 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Easily possible. There are 25-30 colours available. Heres the breakdown of how I will do it for starters: Note that I am following the boxset colours in some cases Season One Brothers Keeper - Teal Episodes 2-8 - Fuschia Episodes 9-16 - Lavender Episodes 17-22 - Lilac Season Two Episodes 1-8 - Green Episodes 9-16 - forest Episodes 19-23 - mold Season Three Episodes 1-8 - red Episodes 9-16 - burgundy Episodes 17-24 - orange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilders Posted May 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Thanks KaeptnCaipi. Imitation is always the finest form of flattery In this case that is my intention! If you guys have any suggestions let me know. I may change the colours around for the later seasons if they don't stand out from the map landscape.

Bilders Posted May 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 I have a LOT more locations to go. I have been bias with my favourite episodes. I have seen the whole series of Vice but I have a soft spot for the first season Thanks to CGlide I will have some assistance in completing this map!

Administrators KaeptnCaipi Posted May 22, 2014 Administrators Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I was thinking about if it is possible to merge the two maps. It would be great if we have one map with all the locations and infos on episodes and scene. And if we had someone who synchronises the maps with the locations threads here in our forum and with Charlie Glides filming locations website... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilders Posted May 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I see possibilites here. Especially if a few people are willing to chip in, which I see no issue with. Zeemaps appears to have the ability to import maps and locations. You may be able to import your maps onto one single map. I would take a look and see what you think i really liked it cause it allows you to add pics, videos and a lot of summary to the markers. Plus the road/satellite view options.
