The only project I know of that has openly available map data is |
20 |
OpenStreetMap (openstreetmap.org). I know they have an API, and they |
21 |
probably (not sure) have maps available for download. |

afaik the only way to combine various map data out of the box is to use |
24 |
a GIS package like QGIS. You can write software to do this using the |
25 |
proj4 library for an embedded box, not sure if anything for your |
26 |
specific use case already exists and is open source. |
