I have an ASP.NET website where we are generating pdf's and web pages using crystal reports.
One of the requirements we have is for in the pdf's to have a map of NY state with markers on it that are placed based on GIS Coordinates. For the web page we can do this easily with google maps.
Anyone know if there are any third party map generating solutions that can do this? We currently use map info and google maps, but I dont think either are capable of doing this?
I don't know of any off the top of my head, but that doesn't mean to say that there aren't any.
Hopefully someone here will be able to point you in the right direction.

I think it is also against google (and I would imagine any of the online maps) terms of service to export their information for redistribution outside of their APIs. (Heh not that that matters to most people unless they get caught)
"By using Google Maps and any data or information
accessed from Google Maps, you agree to be bound by our Google Terms of
Service as well as these additional terms and conditions. For
individual users, Google Maps, including local search results, maps,
and photographic imagery, is made available for your personal,
non-commercial use only. For business users, Google Maps is made
available for your internal use only and may not be commercially
redistributed, except that map data may be accessed and displayed by
using the Google Maps API pursuant to the API terms and conditions."
That is a good point Sean, I had forgotten about that.
