Hey-
 
I've put together a basic overview map for OpenLayers.
http://dev.geocartic.com/openlayers/examples/overviewmap.html
 
The default is comes with a single world graphic.  For a smarter overview
map, you can construct it with an array of overview graphics that kick in at
different extents/resolutions (zoom in on the example).
 
Features:
- Drag the extent rectangle to recenter the map
- Click on the overview graphic to recenter the map
 
Things I will do later:
- Let overview map be added to any page element (not just the map viewport)
- Fix some funkiness I just noticed in IE
 
Any feedback is welcome.
Tim
 
(The click to recenter requires the patch for ticket #197:
