Create custom Google maps (or OpenLayers?)

I am currently working on a project that maps elements to a physical location in a building. We have a map created in our GIS system (ArcGIS) and capable of resolving elements to the corresponding form identifier on this map.

We want to create a web map using one of the APIs, such as Google maps or Open Layers, to display this information, directing the user to the desired location on the map and ideally highlighting a specific location (for example, using a shaded polygon) or, by at least identify it with some sort of marker.

However, we are very new to all the online mapping APIs, and at the moment we find it pretty overwhelming. All we really want is a flat map with our own custom images - we are not very interested in georeferencing, forecasts, etc.

Does anyone have any tips or information on how we can do this? Even the most common pointers would be helpful - it's hard to figure out where to look when there is so much information!

Greetings

If you are using ArcGIS Server , use ArcCatalog to expose your WMS data .

If you use ArcGIS Server, you can also strip your images and feature layers through a REST endpoint that OpenLayers can use. Check out the James Fay blog post on the topic .
