Or it is better to use a free map provider (not so complete as google is) instead?



Are there any?

Well there is OpenStreetMap, which is rather a database and specification that needs an external renderer.

Some available renderers are shown here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners_Guide_1.5

(notice there's one in C++ (Mapnik) that uses AGG as back-end... seems we could do the same using U++ technology directly!)

Here is an example of Mapnik output: http://mapnik.org/maps/srtm_relief_natgrid/

My 2 cents,
Lionel
