I've cooked up a (crude!) moving navigational map as a custom PUI widget - it's *not* an Atlas-replacement, or an MPMap replacement, more a 'close in' thing for situational awareness, and a way to prototype and experiment with techniques I'll use in real cockpit displays in the future. (it's also very useful for debugging route-manager/LNAV/GPS leg bugs!)
The wiki page: http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Map includes links to the relevant patches, instructions, known issues (which are many - it may even crash FG if you zoom out too far, and will certainly bring your frame-rate right down) and so on. I plan to add this to the CVS 'soon', so testing and feedback would be much appreciated. I'd be particularly interested in smaller changes to improve the usability - I'm aware that people differ greatly in how they like to navigate such interfaces. 'Big' suggestions such as including terrain elevation data will be politely ignored for the moment.
