=Italy Google Maps Mashups!When I last did my Italian roundup back in December '05 I could only find 2 Google Maps mashups for Italy. This was before street mapping was available for Europe and only satellite maps existed. Now more mashups have surfaced and I'm back with a roundup of
all known Google Maps mashups for the country of Italy. Know of another one not mentioned?
Add to this list by posting a comment! I've indicated what language the pages are in to help your exploring of these mashups. If you're interested to translate the Italian text to English or another language try the

Venice Google Maps Mashup - Here is a great English language Google Maps mashup for the city of Venice, Italy. Explore significant historical places of interest and discover this city's amazing charm by using the vivid, high resolution satellite imagery on Google Maps. Each point of interest has details about the location and some include multi-tabbed info windows with photos and event listings for that attraction.

Restaurants in Italy on Google Maps - Best described by the mashup creator:
"Italians love food and foreigners love Italian food too, so we decided to build a community of people who enjoy dining out and like to share the favourite places with others. For sure all this in full web 2.0 style with tags, wikis, google maps mashups and everything." Here is an example of a
Chinese restaurant search in Rome.
"We also have geographical searches of restaurants in a certain city district and wiki features to allow people to correct the position of the restaurant on the map." [Italian language - for *now*.. English coming soon!]Another Restaurant Mashup:Gustoinrete.com + Google Maps - Appears to mash up an Italian restaurant website with Google Maps.

I made many GoogleMaps about Italy (only written in italian).
For the city of Turin there are maps about Winter Olympic, Subway, restaurants, Webcams.
There are also maps about Football (Stadium, also for Germany),
and about all the Italian Regions.
Into the "info windows" there are links to other websites giving informations (as images, photos, data,... taken from wikipidia, google,flickr, and so on.)

Well this mash-up is not quite ready for prime time but I don't want to be left behind on this page about Italy!
We integrated an antique map of CittĂ di Castello, and we plotted damage data from an earthquake damage survey taken in the same period.

beware: the final infowindows still need to be styled, everything else should be in place.
Given the spatial scale in the original map and survey, we added 2 extra zoom levels to the standard Google's one; this is probably the most interesting thing about the mash-up for other developers!
