Hi do you have any code already working that I can look at? I was thinking of 
having 3 types of maps;

Static: which is just an image and very analogous to what people already have 
in print bibles and is already supported for the most part.
Interactive: XML based, possibly svg (this would be the main module type)
Dynamic: which would be your 3d satellite data with possible overlays (which 
BTW is only of limited use for ancient near eastern studies because of some 
landform shifts in the area over the past 2000 years)
