I'm assuming that this question has actually been answered, but I
can't for the life of me find an answer after searching this group or
the My Maps group.  If someone could point me in the right direction,
or if it in fact hasn't been answered let me know where to start, I'd
really appreciate it.

I'm working out how to develop a campus map for the University of
Dundee using Google Maps, so that we can embed it on the site and also
think about using it for mobile phones: http://tinyurl.com/campusmap

What I'd like to be able to do is to search within the locations on
that map, excluding other user-generated locations (the map is not
public at the moment because I want it to be complete and correct
before we let people loose on it!  I'll make it public once we've got
everything there.)

It seems that this isn't possible just using My Maps, so I was
wondering whether this would be possible with the API.  What I'd like
to happen is that someone comes to a page with the map embedded in it,
search for "cafe", and be shown any locations within the campus map,
such as Student Union Cafe, and Tower Cafe, but not any nearby non-
University cafes.  We'd obviously be doing the same for departments,
but "cafe" seemed like a better example as there is more than one of
them.

How would I go about doing this?  Is there a simple read-written
script that would enable this, or might I have to go about making an
external XML data source?

Thanks

Adrian
