That would probably be best accomplished by rendering vector data from shapefiles (esri), OSG already has support for ESRI using the ESRIShape plugin: http://www.openscenegraph.org/svn/osg/OpenSceneGraph/tags/OpenSceneGraph-2.8.2/src/osgPlugins/shp/ESRIShape.cpp

Yeah, it seems like osgGIS is really focused too much on OSG. But instead of using shapelib for ESRI support I'd rather use gdal or ogr which is already used in TerraGear and is not limited to a single format. But I think this is something to consider later. For a first version of the map it should be enough to expose the data that is already available in the core.
