In addition to releasing an api to Google maps, Google has expanded their
maps to cover the world (v=w2.4), not in the same detail as the US though.

The expansion has made lat,long calculations in Google Land much easier. The
keyhole imagery is also accessible but I believe the Terraserver WMS DOQQ is
easier to correlate and probably the imagery is better for the USA. I wonder
if Google keyhole has opened up world wide imagery? 

 

I haven't looked too seriously at the api 

http://www.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/

 

It should offer some interesting possibilities beyond simply showing the
google map tiles under svg, especially if they eventually expand the api to
include routing and geocoding.
