Google Maps will allow KML overlays to some degree. The KML data that
MapGuide is generating via the mapagent KML operations are intended for use
in Google Earth only since it is actually creating a Google Earth folder,
uses regions, etc. It is possible to develop some custom programming using
the MapGuide and FDO API's to produce your own KML. And, you can make it
work in Google Maps. An example is:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=http://mapguide.spatialgis.com/mapgu
ide/GoogleEarthDemo/GE_Spokane_Parcels.aspx%3FfileFormat%3DKML%26BBOX%3D-117
.4423,47.665,-117.441,47.666&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=17&om=1
Note that while this works great in Google Earth, the formatting gets a
little messed up in Google Maps and I have not taken the time to figure out
why since I do not use it this way. Your better options in Google Maps are
to use placemarks and WMS overlays. There is some information on how you
can get started here:
