You need to create a new ContentMap module and set "External Data Source" in the module properties.

You need a php file on the server where your information are, which extract and returns data in json format.
Finally in the module you have to point the URL of the data source to the php file mentioned above.
You already have sample files. Take a look into the directory libraries/contentmap/json/
