+In the old days of Odoo/OpenERP, back in version 6.1, there was an official
+*google_map* module ; this module added a *Map* button on the partner form view
+and, when the user clicked on that button, it would open a new tab on its web
+browser and go to Google Map with a search on the address of the partner.
+
+This module aims at restoring this feature with several improvements:
+
+* Each user can select the map website he wants to use in its preferences
+* There are now two buttons on the partner form view: one to open a regular map
+ on the address of the partner, and another one to open an itinerary map from
+ the start address configured in the preferences of the user to the address of
+ the partner.
+
+This module supports several map websites:
+
+* `Google Maps <https://www.google.com/maps>`
+* `OpenStreetMap <https://www.openstreetmap.org/>`
+* `Bing Maps <https://www.bing.com/maps/>`
+* `Here Maps <https://www.here.com/>`
+* `MapQuest <http://www.mapquest.com/>`
+
+If the module *base_geolocalize* from the official addons is installed on the
+system, it will use the latitude and longitude to localize the partner (instead
+of the address) if this information is present on the partner.
