There's an API for Google Maps, but don't ask me how it works.
You can allegedly do all kinds of things - draw lines, add text, change the colors of
the pins, add annotations, etc.

That's a good start. I wonder how hard it would be to generate that on a
regular basis? I have cities for a fair part of the nodes in HECnet. No
exact coordinates, though.
And then I don't have a current view of all links, but that could
possibly be somewhat extracted through NCP. But then, that would then
also required that you could makes lines or arches between two points...
And of course, I only have all of this under RSX. Looks like this is
using Google drive, which I think it could be a bit too complicated to
access from RSX. Someone with VMS who wants to give it a shot? :-)
