It is possible to convert a PDF MAP into a Illustrator MAP with Actual Latitude and Longitude data a POI ( Place of Interest) Or Create a POLYLINE like you do in Google maps and Feed the GPS data into Illustrator and It will create the Exact same shape of the LINE .

You can make a script which could take in some data and place art objects into their XY positions based on the results of a lat/long-to-x/y conversion formula.

@Silly-V Great idea! What would be the best way to make the script that uses the XY position from a spreadsheet and places an icon accordingly? The columns would be X coordinate, Y coordinate and name_of_icon.jpg.
I would also need the script to repeat for each line in the spreadsheet, creating separate artboards or exported files for each line in the spreadsheet. In other words, I need one icon per file exported. Thanks a bunch!
