The mapping should be handled by Mapcom. Not really sure all the benefits that
come by integrating it but it is something we own and I figured I may as well
see what it can do.
At the moment I am probably just going to write a trap receiver in C++ or C#
and an alarm client so everyone can have real time trap monitoring.

We use Zenoss and Observium.
Zenoss for more "powerful" things like custom datasources, alerting, etc.
Observium for a simple look into the environment.
Neither offer very advanced mapping platforms, though. You can feed Zenoss GPS
coordinates to plot things on a map.

What does your mapping department need from the NMS? Seems like you at least
need a way to attach GPS coordinates to a node, or to retrieve said coordinates
from the node. In fact, I'm pretty sure that MRTG, being very basic does not
even have a database.

OK, so the query was buried in another email. So, to make it a bit more
explicit, here is the question:
What do you like for NMS?
I need something that will integrate with software used by my mapping
department. The software they use will work with a whole bunch of different
NMS packages (it claims). I have only worked with PRTG and MRTG in the past.
Seems that Solarwinds seems popular with the mapping software people but there
are many more.
If I do this right, we will have a real time system map showing all our
fiber and all our active electronics with current alarms and status. I think...
