# Embed a map

Instead of getting the coordinates, just get a map directly.

Native Land Digital also offers the ability for you to load a map directly onto your website through our Embed API.

To do this, you should understand the [Names and Positions API detailed here](/by-names-and-or-position.md). You will be sending a URL with this request to the embed API.

To create an iframe with a map displayed on it, just set the source of the iframe to the query you want to send. For instance:

```
<iframe src="https://native-land.ca/api/embed/embed.html?maps=languages&name=witsuwiten&key=your_api_key"></iframe>
```

Will create the following:

This is a fairly simple map using Leaflet and Open Street Maps as a base layer, to keep everything open source.
