asp.net controls for MAP based Applications
<p>I am new to stackoverflow, I am creating an .net web map applications similar to google maps.
But my 1st requirement is to create my own map. please suggest tools to create shapefiles,index files and dbfiles.</p>

<p>2nd requirement is that i need to know controls in asp.net for implementing it.</p>

<p>I have a jpg image of my map can i use that image as my map or do i need to create the shape files for this. I want to include all the features shown in google map in my application.</p>

<p>Note .net 3.5 framework is where i have to implement this application. And also i can not use any existing map such as bing, google maps.</p>
