Take a screenshot of the map area you like, and set up a .geo file that
references the corner points of the screenshot with the real locations under
those corner points.

Xastir cannot interface directly with external mapping programs, period.
Main reason is it's often against the terms of use for those mapping
programs, or the interface method is proprietary or costly.
