To give you good advice, it's probably necessary to find out a bit about 
what you need the image map *for*--e.g. you can add on in an HTML 
content element, or TYPO3's GMENU can make an imagemap dynamically [1], 
but if you need it for something other than navigation, or if you need 
editors to be able to make them, then some other approach might be better.

You're unlikely to be the first to need imagemaps--I once built an 
extremely crude extension for creating imagemaps in an afternoon--so you 
might also want to check the TER to see if there are any extensions that 
already do something like what you need…
