"Indiana Jones" / Like crow flies style google plot cards, no animation?

Given the set of GPS coordinates, I need to build them using Google maps and draw a line from each to the other. It would be optimal if I could show the focus, but this is not entirely necessary as long as I can indicate the starting point.

There will be more than two points - the number of points requested will vary, so I think I need to know the maximum number of points that I can build on one map, so if necessary, I can split the points into several cards.

The distance doesn’t matter to me.

I don't care about true accuracy - it's just to help the user visualize the places the object was in.

I do not need any information returned other than the card. It would be nice to insert the returned map into a web page, but I agree to send the user to Google Maps.

I suspect there is an API here, but a bunch of searches did not return any results, so any help would be appreciated.

Sean.

You can create a KML file and display it on Google maps

This will help , this is a link to animation in KML. I believe that you will need an example: animation of earth overlays.
