Map view of caches found/placed?

Is there a way on the website to see all of your found and placed caches in map view (note: not the view in the premium membership where you see the ones found/not found in queries, but more of a pictorial view in your profile of the US and/or country and world view that highlights countries, states, etc, where you have found/placed a geocache ? I have seen a few people use http://www.world66.com to create their own personal maps manually, but I would like to see an option to view caches like this in an automatic fashion. Thanks.

If you have GSAK then you can download a Macro to map whatever you've got filtered on Google Maps. Just look in the GSAK forums to find it - it's the best macro I've seen.

I have done it using Microsoft Streets and Trips. I started with a pocket query and then imported the data into Streets and Trips. Click on my user name and view my profile, the maps are on there for people to see.....

While we are on this topic...

 

What is the "typical" timing scheme for Groundspeak "updating" the user found/placed caches? I ask because it feels like mine has not been updated in a VERY long time. Is this my imagination or is the schedule somewhat hap-hazard?

 

This is not a complaint...just an observation. I am curious as to how this is supposed to work.

 

btw: I simply export dbf files from gsak then bring that point data into ArcView (for the minority of those who have access to that software) to create my own custom mapping.

I have my own home-grown mapping solution, shows territory as well, it's in my profile and updates in real-time.

Doesn't appear to be working....

 

It works, it's just very slow because I havn't optimized it for speed.

the map will appear between my "states visited map" and my FTF list. It may take a minute or two.

 

Since this map is generated in real-time, it doesn't pop up right away like a static image would. It has to be rendered, and is entirely database-driven
