If you happen to be using GeoServer/GeoWebCache to serve up your own WMS services they have built a great Google Maps service to hand out the proper images (http://geowebcache.org/docs/current/services/ gmaps.html). I set up a demo here: http://demos.geojason.info/google-maps-geowebcache-demo.php

Huh. Right. Yay for having made the math overly complicated. I guess I still don't get the white lines, in large part because they never show up on my massgis data. http://maps.massgis.state.ma.us/mhc/examples/gmap3wms_example2.html Perhaps it's due to the different backends? (geoserver + arcs

Last time I asked about WMS, KakaduDreamer pointed me towards his http://earthalerts.manyjourneys.com/web/, which led to me throwing up an overlay example. Not base layers, but it might be helpful. http://lyceum.massgis.state.ma.us/wiki/doku.php?id=googlemapsv3:home As Davide mentioned, it takes

Hello everybody, I must say that I don't like this solution based on GroundOverlays (of course you might well be happy with it and ignore my message :-). The problem I see is that once you get the image at the largest scale it gets scaled by the client at lower scales (zooming in) and resolution ge
