Josh, You can use the basic display object ordering with in flash. So just make sure the container display object that your map is added to is below that of your interactive content.
eg using your base class as the container addChild( map ); var interactiveLayer:Sprite = new Sprite(); addChild( interactiveLayer ); then add all your interactive content to that layer. interactiveLayer.addChild( someButton ); It should appear above your map.
