Take a look at Apple's reachability project that tests Internet reachability, and just implement it in your app to hide/show the map.

This is also a good step-by-step tutorial

The great thing about this is that it works with notifications, so you can react to changes in the network and not only to whether the network was available at the start of the application.

Once you include it in your project it can be as simple as:

Reachability *reach = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection];   
NetworkStatus status = [networkReachability currentReachabilityStatus];    
if (status == NotReachable) {        
    // hide map        
} else {        
    // show map
}
