It sounds like you have a series of GPS coordinates that you want to display as a line on a map. The Google Maps API (both v2 and v3) will allow you to do that. You might want to run the data through a simplification algorithm, as the more points you have the longer it will take to render. -- Larry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
