    a database system to store coordinate and attribute information associated with map objects for a geographic map provided by a mapping system, wherein said coordinate information associates said map objects and attribute information with corresponding areas of said geographic map; and

    an information system to access said database system and retrieve said coordinate and attribute information of map objects in accordance with information requests; and

    at least one client computer system in communication with said server computer system via a network and including;

    a mapping system interface to communicate with said mapping system over said network and facilitate retrieval and manipulation of said geographic map; and

    a user interface to transmit said information requests to said information system in response to user actions, and to display said geographic map and render and overlay on said geographic map said map objects and corresponding attribute information received from said information system in response to said information requests, wherein each map object overlays and corresponds to an area on said geographic map and is rendered within said client computer system based on said retrieved coordinate information for that map object.
