NYTimes Beijing Maps & Graphics

Perhaps it's foolish to point out yet another awesome NYTimes infographic, but I found their recent set of maps describing growth and new architecture in Beijing to be both interesting and beautiful. Their Olympic medal history visualization is also cool. Damn them for being so awesome. All the time. </fawning>

any idea what they are using to make these map/graphics? They are usually well done. Seems like it might be some version of Flash?
