Embedding the Bike Citizens map in your website


Embedding the map works by including an iframe HTML tag into your website. The most basic variant looks like the following:

Code

<iframe src="https://map.bikecitizens.net/embedded?cccode=de-bremen" height="700px" width="100%" frameborder="0"></iframe>

This includes an iframe with the given dimensions¹ to your site in which the Bike Citizens route planer is displayed. The city to be shown is set in the cccode parameter, here the city of Bremen is used as an example. See the list of available cities for the respective city-code of your city.
