Mapping Event Locations

Map of All Events - Location Visualization​

note

This feature requires macOS 11 (Big Sur) or above

The Event Location Map in BusyCal allows you to visualize all locations from your calendar events on an interactive map. This provides an intuitive way to explore, search, and navigate your scheduled locations, making it easy to view past meeting spots, or find upcoming event destinations at a glance.

Map of all event locations
important

BusyCal displays locations from your selected calendars. To appear on the map, a location must be a valid address. If coordinates aren't already assigned, BusyCal will attempt to generate them. However, some location names or addresses may not be recognized, preventing them from being pinned on the map.

Complete Map of Events with Locations​

The Event Map feature creates a comprehensive map of all events that contain location information. This visual representation helps you:

  • See the geographic distribution of your schedule
  • Plan travel between different event locations
  • Identify clusters of events in specific areas
  • Review past event locations and upcoming meeting destinations

Key Features​

  • See all event locations on a map – Automatically displays pins for events with location details.
  • Search for specific locations – Quickly find events based on their location names.
  • Navigate and zoom – Pan and zoom across your event locations for better visualization.
  • Find events linked to locations – Click on a pin to view associated events.
  • Filter by calendar – Focus on specific events by selecting individual calendars or calendar sets in the main calendar window.

How to Use the Map View​

  1. Open Show Events on Map from the View menu.
  2. BusyCal will gather all event locations and display them as pins on the map.
  3. Click on a pin to see all events scheduled for this location.
  4. Use the search bar to filter on specific locations in the list.
  5. Zoom and pan to explore locations across different areas.

When a location address cannot be mapped to a coordinate, a pin with a slash will appear next to its name.
