The software used to build the map page is Map-Fu (http://sourceforge.net/projects/map-fu/), an open-source web mapping interface written in PHP/JavaScript that works with UMN MapServer (http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/) software. The software was developed as part of the Oregon Sustainable Community Digital Library (OSCDL) by Academic & Research Computing at Portland State University.
The address locator functionality uses the free Google geocoder (http://www.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/#Geocoding_Examples), which converts addresses into geographic coordinates.
