Quikmaps in your web application
It’s been in development for a while, and I’ve hinted it’s existence to a number of folks, but now it’s finally reality. What is it? It’s QMaps: Quikmaps technology for 3rd party applications.
I’ve set up a website on Spatial North which provides documentation, examples, a class reference, and download links. In a nutshell, QMaps is a JavaScript library structured as a series of extensions to the Google Maps API. You can use this library to invoke the familiar Quikmaps editor, to display non-editable maps created by the editor, or to build your own custom map editor.

This means you can use it in non-commercial applications as long as you make attribution to Quikmaps / Spatial North.
