The Solanaceae Source Web site, a global monograph of the genus Solanum, has also implemented Google Maps on it's species pages (e.g. http://www.nhm.ac.uk/research-curation/projects/solanaceaesource/taxonom y/description-detail.jsp?spnumber=1065).
The Web site is a product of the ongoing PBI Solanum project, funded by the NSF (Grant number: DEB-0316614), and is a work in progress. Any comments, criticisms, advice on any aspect of the Web site is welcome.

It would be nice if some representation or preview of the map appeared right on the page... worth taking a look at the Google Maps API. Helps you know if it's worth the extra click & switching to the other app. Also, did you know that KMLs will show up on maps.google.com too? It's called "kml on maps" - might help with what you're looking for. Best, -Rebecca Shapley On 8/10/07, Timothy M.

I am working on species pages that include the use of video. The videos were only added a month ago and are a bit rudimentary (with budget-conscious equipment) but the potential now seems truly limitless.
