I've got a DB with a whole bunch of records containing lat and long of points I want to get onto a map. The level of detail I need is down to Australian street level and up to the country level and it can be either pure map data (suburbs, streets, etc) or aerial photos. This is purely for personal purposes and the output doesn't need to be production quality. I assume either Bing maps or Google Earth is the way to go - can anyone point me in the right direction for a very fast, simple implementation? Thanks!

SQL Server Management Studio 2008 includes a simple visualizer in the form of a Spatial results tab in the Query results window. This visualizer works with a geography or geometry column in the query results and plots the spatial data types on a grid. If multiple spatial columns appear in the query results, you can choose the one to visualize. The column to be displayed must be in the SQL Server binary format; using ToString() or STAsText() won't work with the visualizer.
