1. A map builder system for enabling generic interfacing of an application with a display map generation process in a management system for tracking a topology of objects, the system comprising: a topology data repository configured to provide topological data; a database having a table of mapping entries, each of said entries including an expression that defines whether said topological data corresponds to said entry and including a mapping, said mapping defining a feature to be displayed by said display map generating process; and a map builder interfaced with said topology data repository and said display map generation process, said map builder configured to receive said topological data, to compare said expression of at least one of said entries with said topological data, to correlate said topological data with said at least one entry based on said expression, to retrieve a mapping included within said at least one entry in response to a determination that said topological data is correlated with said at least one entry, and to produce a map edit request based on said mapping included within said at least one entry.
