Si necesitan hacer una aplicación que incorpore mapas que no requiere necesariamente de que todo México esté al detalle en los mapas, les recomiendo el SDK de Virtual Earth. Se trata de un control pensado para web que se manipula con JavaScript. Sin embargo, con un mínimo de ingenio lo pueden utilizar en cualquier aplicación Windows Forms o WPF al hostear (sic) un web browser control en un UserControl de Windows Forms. O mejor aún, pueden tomar este código que hice ayer para esos fines y simplemente usarlo:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Data;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

Por si lo quieren usar en XAML hay que agregar la referencia al control de Windows Forms en su proyecto WPF y luego agregar esto en la definición inicial de namespaces de su archivo….
xmlns:wfmap="clr-namespace:WindowsLiveControl;assembly=WindowsLiveControl"
y luego incluirlo así donde quieran…
<WindowsFormsHost
Name="mapHost">
<wfmap:WindowsLiveMapControl
Name="mapControl"/>
</WindowsFormsHost>
Una solución fácil para incorporar mapas simples en sus aplicaciones. Hasta la próxima…..
