How to put Google Maps in Flash cs4
Put google maps into your flash application in just 6 simple steps. You can download the sample code right here. Follow these steps in order to put google maps in to an swf file.

1 - Download the google maps api SDK from

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/flash/release/sdk.zip.

2 - Create a new directory named “Google†at this location on your computer.

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS4\Common\Configuration\Components

3 - Place the map_1_9.swc extracted from the sdk.zip into this google directory. The map_1_9.swc is located inside the “lib†folder in the sdk. You need to copy this into the google directory you created in step 2.

4 - Launch Adobe Flash CS 4, and open windows->Components and you would be able to see the google maps library.

5 - Now you need to add this library into the library of your fla. Just Drag it onto the library of your fla.

6 - Now you need to write this simple code in the actions panel.
import com.google.maps.LatLng;
import com.google.maps.Map;
import com.google.maps.MapEvent;
import com.google.maps.MapType;

var map:Map = new Map();
map.key = “your_google_maps_api_keyâ€;
map.setSize(new Point(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight));
map.addEventListener(MapEvent.MAP_READY, onMapReady);
this.addChild(map);

function onMapReady(event:Event):void {
map.setCenter(new LatLng(40.736072,-73.992062), 14, MapType.NORMAL_MAP_TYPE);
}

7 - Hit Ctrl+Enter and your DONE .
