We have a solution dynamic mapping for Coldfusion using MapInfo as a dynamic map generator. the maps are gifs drawn in real time. zoom in/out, pan, find nearest, populate the map with various POI, etc, etc. it's of course an OEM tool need integration with your specific maps. >Our development box is win2000, access 2000, IIS 5, CF which matches our >hosting ISP. The database will move over to SQL7 mid year. as you must know, access sucks at any volume. I doubt the rate of queries to support our dynamic mapping solution will be supported by Access. >ESRI/Eagle Technology donated ArcView for producing the maps.

For our CF MapInfo dynamic GIS, you'd need MapInfo MapxSite license, plus our stuff. not cheap.
