The overlay can be created/shown using Nasal + Canvas, even without doing much/any Nasal coding - for instance, the application could act as a map server and simply serve a live map, which can then be shown inside FlightGear/Phi or elsewhere:

The reason is that I want to test the possibility of using Julia applications in place of NASAL and C ++ applications so that I can do things that are currently difficult for kernel developers to achieve. When I get a good coupling method with FGFS I could introduce more advanced graphics functions and then insert the nice function you proposed.
Look up any topics mentioning FGPythonSys, FGNasalSys or HLA/RTI to learn why this is probably not such a good idea without doing some reading/research first and reaching out to the developers mailing list
