I too have been struggling with this type of mod myself. We have a recovery list that people can use to see who ot call in their area if they get stuck. At one time we had a map of michigan just in plain HTML with an image map that had to be manually updated.
That got to be a real PITA so I scratched that and now I just made it so people can automatically enter data and display as a text list. I would eventually still like to do the map but I had no idea how that would work
