I've searched extensively on the net and can find numerous options for overlaying additional information on existing data, but nothing on how maps can be drawn and rendered, then tiled and displayed. My first thoughts was a combination of CloudMade and the Leafletjs javascript library, but the former does not appear to allow you to import your own mapping data. However, the company want it available, link to GPS data for junctions, signposts etc, and available in an online Google Maps style interface, which means that once created, the map needs to be rendered into tiles. In the main that is easily done in a variety of software. Also this is not detail that can be done as an overlay on existing map data, the 'bosses' have already ruled that option out. I've looked at most the available data and its sources and its just not an option - therefore we need to have maps drawn/created to our specific requirements, which may seem OTT, but its the only way. I have been tasked at work with looking at how we create a Google Maps style system for our internal roadway system - this roadway covers around 45 miles and the level of detail exceeds that supplied by any available mapping data (OS, Google Maps, OSM) source. I'm hoping somebody may be able to help or at least point me in the right direction, with a GIS/Mapping query that is a little unusual.
