That's really interesting. You could certainly have a couple of low opacity cloud layers over the top that animate as the mouse is moved around.

So I ran across this: http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax.html
And a couple of the demos looked like they could get used with mapping....
Image a city map with mupltiple building levels: http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos.html
Imagine a space sector map with system layers framed inside this grid: http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_target.html
All iot needs are transparent images...

it would be real neat to have the labels as a slightly larger layer so they would appear to float above the map, too!

Hey, super cool

That's amazing!!!! Great Find RobA! The multiple building level application of it sounds really interesting to me.
That is just great.

Even if I am correct, I would still advise you to follow your heart. This whole Cartographers Guild thing, it seems to me, is more about passion and skill and learning new techniques than it is about definitions and rules.
