I think you can make an ActiveX control with wxPython -- can a ,net app embed an active X control? On the other hand, maybe it would make more sense to port FloatCanvas to IronPython. I'd have to look at the code with that in mind, but I can't imagine that the WinForms or whatever API doesn't support what's needed. With a very quick glance at SharpMap's web site, it looks like it is similar to MapServer and Mapnik. Which means that is is designed to be easy to produce very nice looking maps, and to make it easy to access a wide variety of geo-spatial data sets. However, they re not really designed to be used for truly interactive applications.

Usually on little bit of the map is changing fast, so why re-render the whole thing each frame? You might also look for a general purpose 2-d object canvas in .net. That's what FloatCanvas really is, there may be something that meets your needs.
