Description

Supercharge Toolset Maps with professional OpenStreetMap features that go beyond the basic core implementation.

While Toolset Maps provides a foundation for OSM, this plugin enhances the experience with advanced visualization and data tools, now fully integrated with the WordPress Block Editor.

🧱 Gutenberg Blocks

Forget about complex shortcodes. Version 4.0 provides a modern, visual workflow:
* Advanced OSM Map Block: Configure satellite/topo views, clustering, and tracks visually in the sidebar.
* Dynamic Track Loader Block: Easily link Toolset File Fields (KML/GPX) to your maps within Query Loops or Content Templates.

🛰️ Satellite & Topography Views

Satellite: High-resolution Esri satellite imagery.
Topography: OpenTopoMap integration for outdoor and adventure maps.
Smart Toggles: Interactive front-end buttons to switch between layers.

🔵 Pro Clustering

Customize the cluster color to match your brand and set precise zoom thresholds for declustering.

📍 KML & GPX Support

Visualize tracks, routes, or shapes. Load files in three ways:
1. Media Library: Select multiple files directly from your WordPress media.
2. Direct URLs: Paste manual KML/GPX links.
3. Dynamic Fields: Use a Toolset File Field slug to pull tracks from your custom posts.

🎨 Custom Styling & Layers

Grayscale Mode: Apply “silver” or “muted” styles to standard maps.
Layer Management: Toggle roads and labels independently on satellite views.
Subfolder Compatible: Optimized for WordPress installations in subdirectories.

FAQ

Does this work with the Toolset Map block?: Yes! This plugin extends any map rendered by Toolset, whether via Blocks or the classic View integration.
How is this different from native Toolset Maps?: Toolset provides basic OSM functionality. AOTM adds:
– Satellite and Topography imagery with interactive buttons.
– Customizable clusters (colors and behavior).
– KML/GPX support for tracks and shapes.
– Precise grayscale styling and independent layer controls.
Does this replace Toolset Maps?: No, it enhances it. You still need Toolset Maps installed and active.

Reviews

stopvertidosilegales January 14, 2026

We use this plugin on stopvertidosilegales, a website where citizens report and locate illegal waste dumping sites. The satellite imagery layer is essential for our work, as it allows us to clearly see the terrain and accurately identify dumping areas that are often hidden or hard to access. This plugin makes it easy to use aerial photos with Toolset Maps and greatly improves the reliability and usefulness of the map for real environmental action. Simple to use, stable, and very effective.

Very useful plugin! It makes Toolset Maps much better and easier to customize. Works great and does exactly what I needed. Thank you!

This plugin is exactly what I needed. The ability to add custom layers, switch to satellite view, and fine-tune map behavior makes it incredibly powerful. It integrates smoothly and works reliably. Highly recommended for anyone using Toolset with OpenStreetMap!
