At this point Google does not have a Google Earth plugin API for the flash player. I would still like to use GE in my AIR(Flex) application though. Can I do this by using the HTML container? If not what is a possible solution?
You can't do Google Earth (unless you can use an iframe or something). Instead check out the 3D Google Maps examples in Tour de Flex and see if those might work for you.
you'd better have a look at this

I'm developing a website related to property which has a lot to do with maps. I just browsed to one of the Google's master pieces (i must say that) Smarty Pins.
I was just wondering if i can use that (or something like that) background effect in my website. If anybody has any idea how can i achieve that please help me.
Is it legal if i copy them??
Please have a look at this link for a documented tutorial of how to develop a game using Google Maps using HTML, CSS and Javascript. And this link will guide you though a course for game development in your web app with Google Map in it.
Hope this would Help you in developing a small game in your Website which has Google Maps and make it more interactive.
All the Best!!
When using the API the images in some situations are outdated compared to what is provided in the public Google Maps interface.
Is there anything we can do about this?
Regards

No, there isn't anything you can do about that, other than possibly to select different versions of the Maps API or to select the "visual refresh" in the API.
The Maps API and the Google Maps site don't use the same map tiles and imagery. Much is common between the two, and they tend to sync up over time, but it will always vary as new releases of each come out.
I would like to integrate google auto text suggest in adobe flex. I could not found out which url should I use to do this. please let me know is there any api from google to do this.

I've stumbled upon this flash map

it looks like they used this map to construct the website.

I am curious as to what people have done or any blogs that describe what can be done with flex and simple maps like this (not google maps style maps) but simple all-in-memory maps like this one. It would be cool to see what/ and how flex can do in terms of maps.
thanks!
You would need to draw the entire map. Its more of like a custom component. The below class would is how to start with.

I want to show flash google map as given on below link

Can anyone please help me from where can I start?
Is there any ready map available like that?
There's a sample Pan/Zoom Flex Application with source for moving around with a Map, which is pretty neat.
Then there's the Google Maps API for Flex, and they have a few examples and base projects you could use to get started.
TriceDesigns has a GoogleEarth Flex Example (with source).
And here's some other examples with source:
Basic Map: Source
China Relief: Source
Smart Info Window Demo: Source
Orthogonal 3D Map: Source
I would start with the Google Map API Flex Library, and one of those projects, and just go from there.
Hope that helps.
You could look at amMap for flash and flex maps and charts (there's a free and a pay version).
