I've got a page that has a map with a starting and ending location. I run a route between them to get the nifty line showing the route. I'm currently using Bing but have attempted with Google as well. I'd like to know which states this route passes through so I can then overlay those states with specific information.

Any suggestions on how to obtain this would be most appreciated.

I'm using the AJAX SDK's for both Bing and Google. Handling all the local stuff with js/jquery.
