Any suggestions for an interactive map application?

I need to do something similar to this:

I wonder if you could recommend a good library or something. JQuery or Javascript will be nice, but Flash/Action Script is not a good option.

You can use jQuery based solution for that - jVectorMap.

You can have a variety of 44 Maping APIs HERE

and of course Flash/Action Script is not a good option since it takes much resource and is always slower than JavaScript and AJAX based solutions.

HERE is your first tutorial to set up your map (from Google developers).

and finally, HERE is a collection of Free Mapping Tools for creating maps online.

Hope this helps :)

Give the Google maps API to make your own custom map from your own images

You can then use the same api to detect clicks that would trigger modal windows.
