Mapping markers on Google Maps

I am looking to map about 800 markers on a Google map. I have a csv file with addresses, including latitude and longitude coordinates. I would like to be able to somehow upload this file to Google Maps resulting in a map displaying all of my markers. This process will be automated, where a windows service (or via Sql Server Integration Services) will upload the address data to some url, effectively updating the markers on a map, which is embeded on an Asp.Net page on my site.

Does anyone know of a simple way this can be accomplished? Are there any tools out there that can already do this? I've looked at batchgeo.com and there file upload feature, but I don't think their tool can be automated.

800 markers is a lot for one map, especially without marker clustering. Do you think maybe something like Google Fusion Tables would work? It's pretty easy, doesn't require much in terms of coding, and I'm fairly certain you can update records via URLs. You can upload your initial CSV file to it, too, and then display the points on a Google Map.

Why not just to use google maps api v3 to display the markers? With 800 markers you probably would like to use marker clustering e.g. using markerclusterer
