I want to map like 2000 locations using Open data kit to Google map, then
the coordinates i get if possible i map them in an internal soft map. i
already have an aggregate appspot, build and collect android are set. i had
set these in January 2011 but the project stalled. now i'm just about to
get a go ahead. What is the best advice to progress on this, what are the
latest factors to consider on mapping. as u see it's a huge project and i
have to do things right here.
If you want to use Google Earth desktop, I recommend exporting the data as
a KML file from Aggregate, then loading that into your Google Earth app.
The other option is to publish the data into Google Fusion Tables, then
render the maps from there. This is far more scalable (especially when you
have 10,000's of points).
The billing charges would probably be very high if you tried to display
these interactively on ODK Aggregate itself.

what charge will i incur, yet all systems here are open source, did they
start charging.

The initial days i was setting my instance, i didn't incur any charge, it
was an online google appspot, also there was an option of having a local
host in port 8080; is it still charged, or by hosting what is the best
explanation to this term.

Mitch was referring to hosting your instance on app engine. The code is
free but hosting for your instance is not nor has it ever been.

On mapping, you will need Google Earth Pro (fee-based) in order to load a
kml, but usefulness is limited. you can load data in GoogleMap, but it is
unreliable and inefficient - lots of points are likely to be dropped for no
reason, and you can only display a limited number of points on a map. The
best (free) google based alternative is a Google fusion table (free, should
work with large number of points) . You may also be able to use other
products like crowdmap https://crowdmap.com/ which is not designed for this
it is a Ushahidi based type of product for crowdsourcing - but may be
used to display your sampled points, or mapbox http://mapbox.com/ (fee-based,
but not expensive). We are about to release a beta version of KoBoMap which
let users map aggregated data by administrative entities, not points.
formhub.org gives you some you pretty good mapping options and
works seamlessly with ODK collect if you just want to map survey data.

What i want is to map, then put the locations on Google map, then also put
these locations on intranet and website. I have google fusion table & full
odk process with me, but i wanted to know how are people adding their
locations on maps, what the most optimal way of doing this especially if i
can borrow from developed country.
