XML
and mapping can mean SVG, see:
http://www.carto.net
http://www.carto.net/projects/open_svg_mapserver/
(see
http://www.adobe.com/svg first if you
haven't already got the SVG viewer installed, the Windows/Mac versions are
available from a link off that page, the Linux/Solaris betas are available from
http://www.adobe.com/svg/viewer/install/old.html )
Also
Michel Hirtzler's site:
http://pilat.free.fr/ or
http://pilat.free.fr/english/index.htm
(Click on "en
PHP" or "With PHP" for examples of a relational map database. Click on
"Cartographie" or "Cartography" for examples of SVG maps on the
client.)
Both of the above are currently using relational back
ends, but a native XML database could be used to persist
SVG.
Another XML/mapping connection is GML. See:
http://www.opengis.net/
and the GML references
at:
http://www.gis-news.de/xml/gml.htm
A presentation about GML (including some mention of
persisting GML in a native XML database) is available
at:
http://www.vanx.org/presentations/Sept18-2001/GMLgeoSemanticWeb.ppt
which is a link from a description of the presentation

Have fun
