1. Flash Maps: DIY Map

Visualize your information. Plot data on a state map. Create a geographic interface.

DIY Map is a clickable, zooming map written in Flash and colored by data from an external text file.

The external data file makes it easy to customize and update state colors, add points, and use the same Flash file many times in the same Web page with different data sets.

2.Google Maps API

The Google Maps API lets you embed Google Maps in your own web pages with JavaScript. The API provides a number of utilities for manipulating maps (just like on the http://maps.google.com web page) and adding content to the map through a variety of services, allowing you to create robust maps applications on your website.

New! Google Maps API for Flash® - Build and deploy maps applications within the Adobe® Flash environment!

3.Mappr APi

Mappr is a service and application that combines images from Flickr with geolocational information. The Mappr ActionScript 3.0 API gives you access to Mappr’s geo-tagged image data.

4.Yahoo! Maps AS3 Component

The all-new Yahoo! Maps component for Flash and Flex 3 enables you to add a map to a wide range of web and desktop applications. Included in the API is support for other Yahoo! APIs including geocoding, local search and traffic APIs along with an advanced marker and overlay system to allow you to easily render geo-data on the map.

Using the Yahoo! Maps component in your Flash, Flex, AIR or Ajax projects gives you the ability to develop anything from a simple map mash-up to full application utilizing the Yahoo! Maps engine.

5.Google, Windows, Yahoo, Ask Maps API for AS3/AS2/Flex

It’s been some time coming though I’ve finally had time to finish the AS3 build of my universal maps code. It’s available for download free of charge (though donations are apreciated) from the same SVN repository and the details for this are below. As well included is the original AS2 version in the legacy.zip file.

It’s been a nice to re-build this project from scratch by taking full advantage of AS3 to simplify the original AS2 universal maps code as it’s now 95 classes from over 500 but still offering almost all the inital functionality! As well not to mention the amazing performance differences between AVM1 and 2. I haven’t gotten around to full documentation (will soon) but there are samples included on all the maps sources to easily get you started.

Here are some examples…

6.Modest Maps
