Hi - I'm working on a very similar problem (displaying data on a Google map). I haven't totally implemented this yet, but my way forward is to use AJAX to request the map data from my Django application, which will serve it as JSON (by serializing it). You then "deserialize" it in the Javascript code, turning it into a Javascript datastructure on the client side. If you are using jQuery for example, jQuery will deserialize it for you. If you are writing the Javascript by hand, you deserialize it by doing an "eval" on the received data.
