James,

We've used a product from ThinkGeo (formerly Spatially Aware) that is a full
suite of GIS tools.  You can turn layers on/off such as roads, railways,
cities (3-4 levels based on size of city), parks, counties and so on.

If I recall, it was about $9,000.  It's a .Net component, but we use it in
our CF apps by including it in an iframe.

Subject: [houcfug] OT - Website Maps


This is slightly off topic, but it is being used for a Coldfusion site!

We're adding a map to our site, like Google Maps/Yahoo Maps.  Both of 
them do what we want, but they display a little too much information, 
like cities & roads for example.  So far I haven't found an option to 
remove all that from the map (satellite version of course doesn't have 
all that, but we need the map type).

So my question is - does anyone know of an alternate to Google/Yahoo 
maps that has similar features - such as dragging and zooming?  It 
doesn't have to be a free service, just wondering if someone has used 
something else that they would recommend.

Google Maps has a Premier API and I'm waiting for a callback from them, 
and I've found one or two other services but this group has proven to be 
a great resource for things like this so I'm hoping someone has a good 
recommendation or idea.
