Leveraging the Services Locator

You have two methods to leverage the Countywide Services Locator.

1. Pass a parameter to the main site: http://maps.lacounty.gov
2. Embed the application within your sites: http://maps.lacounty.gov/SL_Body.aspx

There are three different parameters that you can pass:

1. address_string – this is where you pass the address that you want to show (complete address, city, or zipcode)
2. Cat1 – where you select the primary category (the tab) that you want to show
3. Cat2 – you can open the specified category2 (the relevant cat1 tab will also open

As an example, I want to find all of the Safe Havens near zip code 90012.

The iFrame would look like this: <iframe src=”http://maps.lacounty.gov/SL_Body.aspx?address_string=90012&cat2=Safe+Havens” height=”1000″ width=”99%” frameborder=”0″ marginwidth=”0″ marginheight=”0″></iframe>

Here is what it looks like:
