I am very much interested to know how to create the custom maps as we see on the following links.

and

I would like to know what is the best and robust possibility to create such a kind of customized maps that we can use for other purposes as well. I am sure this is not developed in Flash.

Any suggestions, references, articles etc is highly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Faisal

Yes, you are correct. It's not in Flash instead it's in Javascript. Google it and you will find some code related or similar to this map that is in Javascript.
