    Here's a potential starting point... http://www.casa.ucl.ac.uk/richard/Go...t-download.asp

    It lets you cut-up and html-ify (like my term?) huge images into easily viewable ones using the google maps api. I use it with 30000px wide images at level 7 and get ~1:1 pixel at the maximum zoom. Speed is ~ the same as viewing google maps itself. All you'd need to do then, I think, is setup your locations and actions (I suspect the google api does that too - but I'm no programmer).

    Here's a step in the right direction... http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...ht=google+maps

    I found it while trying to find an old thread on using the google maps cutter. http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...ht=google+maps
    I believe there's info on the command line options to use the right amount of memory etc. for 30000px wide images, formats that work best etc.
