Basically, I want to build mapping system, similar to google maps, using something like Map server & open layers. Take in my own image, such as a building map, define roads or “hallways”, and import points via a XML or RSS feed. I want an interface that I can take the xml feed and run it under the map in a box, displaying it under the map, allowing users to click on the event, and being able to see where they need to go, and using a current fixed position, being able to see how to get there.

Has anyone here developed custom GIS apps with ESRI's Java Map Objects? Cost and licensing issues aside, how does it compare with open Java GIS libraries such as GeoTools?
