I think that's something set by the Google javascript thingy that we
include, rather than by the javascript in OpenGuides itself (though I
may be wrong).  What we have on RGL is a little snippet amending the
default display_metadata.tt template:

  [% IF wgs84_lat AND wgs84_long %]
    (<a href=3D"http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=3D[% wgs84_lat %],[% wgs84_lo=
ng %]&z=3D15">gmap</a>)
    (<a href=3D"http://www.multimap.com/maps/#t=3Dl&map=3D[% wgs84_lat %],[% =
wgs84_long %]|16|4&loc=3DGB:[% wgs84_lat %]:[% wgs84_long %]:15">multimap</a>)
  [% END %]

which includes gmap and multimap links next to the address.

One of the sysadmins will have to answer this one!
