I'm new to this, so apologies in advance for the likely naïveté of my
question.

I'd like to create a custom map using Custom Map Types (http://
code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/
overlays.html#CustomMapTypes).  The image for the map will be a single
vector file, which I will then slice up into smaller tiles.  The map
will include a hundreds of "hotspots" which I'd like to identify with
markers.

Here's my problem: I expect that over time there will be subtle
changes/shifts to the underlying vector file, and the coordinates of
the "hotspots" will therefore change.  I don't want to have to re-
record the coordinates of all the "hotspots" every time this happens.

How should I approach this?  I want to set up a system where the
vector file is "smart" and knows the location of the hotspots and can
therefore easily update the coordinates if changes are made to the
vector file.

I'm just starting to build this system, so I can use any approach. Let
me know if I'm thinking about this problem in the wrong way or if I
should be using a completely different set of tools.
