Q: 

Mapping Application for Middle East

We have a desktop application that has been using MapPoint for displaying data on a European map. We now want to support Middle East maps, but MapPoint only support North America and Europe. Is there any other alternative to MapPoint that can be easily integrated in a .NET based Win Forms application?

+2  A: 

You might consider evaluating openstreetmap data for the middle east. http://www.openstreetmap.org. They use a tiling schema that you might be able to integrate f.i. with sharpmap http://sharpmap.codeplex.com/ I am sure the sharpmap community would be pleased if someone would write an adapter for OpenStreetMap tiles.
