There is a discussion currently on slashdot showcasing a mashup of all the piracy attacks. Here is the slashdot summary : "An anonymous reader noted that you can now see a Google Map of piracy. Not the pretend kind, the real kind with boats and stuff. Considering how much time we spend talking about the other kind, I think it's worth paying attention to the real problems out there."

The Cartography blog provide numerous links to maritime piracy maps. From the blog: "Few maps exist showing the location of piracy attacks, even though locational data for such events exists. The International Chamber of Commerce’s International Maritime Bureau issues a weekly piracy report that provides the location of suspicious incidents and reported attacks."
