Visualising driving distances from a base location as layers on a Google Map

First of all you need to get your own Google Maps API key. Go get one and replace <put-your-Google-Maps-API-key-here> with it.

You need to get a web server to "host" the pages, so one is included as a Docker container.

Make sure that Docker Engine is running.

Then from the root of the project start the containerised Apache:

docker-compose up

Apache will pick up a basic httpd.conf from apache/conf.

Simply visit http://localhost and click on the HTML file.

The oneDayDistanceInMeters parameter sets the base distance in meters, feel free to adjust it to your preferred setting.

oneDayDistanceInMeters = 500000; // 500 km
