Google Maps scales differ depending on latitude.

Here is a javascript example to roughly gauge the approximate scale based on
the Google Zoom Factor:
i.e. Google Zoom factor of 1 would be approximately 1:204800000


switch(this.map.getZoom())
  {
  case 1:
    sScale = "204 800 000"
    fScale = 204800000

    break;
  case 2:
    sScale = "102 400 000"
    fScale = 102400000

    break;
  case 3:
    sScale = "51 200 000"
    fScale = 51200000

    break;
  case 4:
    sScale = "25 600 000"
    fScale = 25600000

    break;
  case 5:
    sScale = "12 800 000"
    fScale = 12800000
    mousefactor = 0;
    break;
  case 6:
    sScale = "6 400 000"
    fScale = 6400000

    break;
  case 7:
    sScale = "3 200 000"
    fScale = 3200000

    break;
  case 8:
    sScale = "1 600 000"
    fScale = 1600000

    break;
  case 9:
    sScale = "800 000"
    fScale = 800000

    break;
  case 10:
    sScale = "400 000"
    fScale = 400000

    break;
  case 11:
    sScale = "200 000"
    fScale = 200000

    break;
  case 12:
    sScale = "100 000"
    fScale = 100000

    break;
  case 13:
    sScale = "50 000"
    fScale = 50000
        break;
  case 14:
    sScale = "25 000"
    fScale = 25000

    break;
  case 15:
    sScale = "12 500"
    fScale = 12500

    break;
  case 16:
    sScale = "6 250"
    fScale = 6250

    break;
  case 17:
    sScale = "3 125"
    fScale = 3125
    break;



  }



Again this is just for a rough approximation.  MapGuide Maestro's MgCooker
can generate or seed tiles.



Cheers,
