Is the current no-charge a loss-leader and access will eventually become chargeable?

I don't know for certain how they implemented this map...I could be entirely wrong about the google maps usage, and it could have been done entirely in flash, for example. But we did something similar with our Wikipedia map using Google Maps API by generating the images at multiple levels of zoom then loading them into the api. See http://scimaps.org/maps/wikipedia/20080103/ Todd Any set of images may be loaded into the google maps api which handles loading and zoom.
