## The Setup

To use your map with Leaflet:

1. Rename your downloaded geojson file and publish it to your webserver.
2. Create a HTML page using the template below.
3. Replace myGeoJSONPath with the path to your own file.
4. That's it!

## The Code

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
        <title>Leaflet GeoJSON Example</title>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://cdn.leafletjs.com/leaflet-0.7.1/leaflet.css" />
        <style type="text/css">
            .leaflet-container{background-color:#c5e8ff;}
        </style>
    </head>

    <body>
        <div id="map" style="width: 600px; height: 400px"></div>

        <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
        <script src="http://cdn.leafletjs.com/leaflet-0.7.1/leaflet.js"></script>
        <script>
            var myGeoJSONPath = 'path/to/mymap.geo.json';
            var myCustomStyle = {
                stroke: false,
                fill: true,
                fillColor: '#fff',
                fillOpacity: 1
            }
            $.getJSON(myGeoJSONPath,function(data){
                var map = L.map('map').setView([39.74739, -105], 4);

                L.geoJson(data, {
                    clickable: false,
                    style: myCustomStyle
                }).addTo(map);
            })
        </script>
    </body>
    </html>
