Map service
-
Does anyone know of a free service that will provide maps? It doesn't have to be great, just show something that's roughly in the right area :-) I need to be able to supply it with a lat/long in an HTTP GET request and have it serve up a map. Yahoo! is a bit clumsy and really only works with a POST (they say you can embed an XML string in the HTTP GET request but it doesn't work) and Google Maps is all JavaScript.

Are you planning to use it within a desktop app? You can use Microsoft Virtual Earth. Here is a sample: http://www.viavirtualearth.com/VVE/Gallery/Winforms2.ashx[^]

No, I just need to be able to embed a link in an HTML page (but I only want a simple href, no JavaScript). Thanks anyway. The other guys have come up with some good suggestions.

startThat's just the ticket. I was hoping for a map rather than satellite but this'll do just fine. Thanks! This reply was supposed to be for Nitron! Sigh...
