What is an iFrame and what is it used for?
An iFrame is an HTML element that allows you to display the map viewer content on your own website—like an embedded window to the map.
It is perfect for visualizing a location, sharing directions to an event, or illustrating geographic context. The content can be enriched, and if needed, the entire viewer application can be embedded via iFrame.
