[Closed] Creating a Map View that shows CPTs by their address and totals by state

I have a Custom Post type that lists events, inlcuding their City and State. I am trying to add a Google Map integration to display CPT posts, which seems like it shouldn't be hard. I'm not adding latitude and longitude, but the flags could be localized more generally to the city/state. That's the first hurdle.

The second, is that I would like to be able to color-code the Google map by number of events, as in the screen cap. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might do this. OR even if Google Maps' API is capable of this sort of thing?

Thanks.

Google have some Map Charts that can help you with what you want:

These maps accept javascript arrays with the data.
You can build these arrays with a View, but it takes a bit of custom code to glue it all together, for example in a custom template in your theme.

Please let me know if you are satisfied with my reply and any other questions you may have.
