New University map

A new University map

The University map is changing from Tuesday 3 December 2024.

You can preview the new map

Once the new map goes live it will be available from the same website address (URL) as the current map https://map.cam.ac.uk/.

The map will have new features and improved navigation, as well as a revamped user interface on both desktop and mobile.

If your website has links to the current University map, or you embed custom views of the University map in your website, you can go to the new map to test it out and find the features you wish to highlight using the map navigation and layers.

A migration guide will be available shortly (please check back here) which has more information about how to do this.

Once the website goes live on 3 December you will need to update the beginning part of the URL from ‘new.map’ to ‘map’.

After the new map goes live at map.cam.ac.uk you can navigate to the specific feature or location or view that you wish to share. Then copy the URL from your web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge etc). This can then be used to update the links or embed code in your website CMS.

There will be a transition period of three months (until Monday 3 February) during which the current map will still be live and links to the map will still work.

We are holding two drop-in Teams webinars for anyone who would like to learn more about the changes to the map, or ask questions about embedded maps or map links.
