Second Life maps with parcel borders

[Indigo Mertel]

Does anyone know if there is a way to display parcel borders on a SL map obtained from the SL Map Api? What I'd like to do is to create a dynamic map of our community based on the parcels owned by the community members, so that we don't need to graphically redraw the map every time a parcel is bought or sold.

As far as I know all you can get from the map API is the picture of the sim with all its buildings and objects (-objects.jpg) or just the land 'raw' (which I can't remember how to get, off the top of my head).  Parcels and other details are not recorded by the map API.

I have an application that maps a region into a matrix of 10x10 cells, with those owned by the current user marked as 1, those for sale or abandonded marked as X and the rest marked as 0, with the map then being displayed in IM to the current user. I suppose it could be expanded to mark parcels ownership with distinct letters, but this is a text representation of a region, not an actual graphic map.

You could turn on the view property lines and cam directly above the sim and take screen shots, however you may have to take a few to get the entire sim and may need to use a program outside of the viewer to pick up the property lines depending on the size of your screen and resolution as well as how far you can cam.  (I can't remember if property lines show up if you elect to display the UI as part of a snapshot or not, because I use an outside program when i do this.)

If you have to take a few shots, then you'd have to stitch them together in an outside program which may or may not save time over drawing the property lines manually, depending on what graphic programs are available to you.
