  Are you aware of the request and response communications using REST or SOAP? This any much more information was explained in my private message to you, but it looks like freelancer has wiped that out completely now ...

  Two answers remain - mapbox or mapnik. I invite comments to help me judge the more correct answer. I think mapnik is a superior answer (in the sense that it has more low-level customisation and is free) but cannot find any styling information. In the absence of styling information I cannot say that the 4square 'look' is achievable - even by entrants own commentary.

     mapbox in combination with leaflet.js can achieve styling + animation. ( Example of animation : http://openplans.github.io/Leaflet.AnimatedMarker/
     http://ewoken.github.io/Leaflet.MovingMarker/ )
     Look at leaflet.js website to ensure that this is being used by foursquare http://leafletjs.com/ )

  To be fair I must reject any entries that repeat what a contestant has already submitted. MapBox was mentioned very early on - I can't reward any contestant that repeats what was already said.
