A sprite image is one image instead of many. The intention behind is to reduce the requests to the server: One request instead of many.
This is an example of a sprite image from Google Maps http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/hpimgs15.png I looked at your xml file and noticed an unknown format of lats and longs: lat="033:32:36" long="112:11:36" So you should know the format of these attributes, I'd guess they have to be converted for Maps APi usage.
