## Maps

With JavaScript APIs for Google Maps, Bing Maps, and MapQuest, and Open Street Maps (Overpass API), it is very easy to embed customized maps on your website.

We'll take a look at a few different examples of how to include maps on our site:

- Embed a map created using vendor-provided tools
- Use the JavaScript API

- Custom Data
- Use standards such as GeoRSS

Each approach has some advantages and shortcomings. Essentially the trade-offs will be increased complexity with increased flexibility and control.
