  Description     : Overlays on Static Maps

Serves two purposes: (i) Provide a comfortable R interface to query the Google server for static maps, and (ii) Use the map as a background image to overlay plots within R. This requires proper coordinate scaling.

This package is required by r-cran-ggmap. I am happy to maintain this
package but will need a sponsor
