It refers to the instance of MapPane as an
com.google.android.gms.maps.OnMapReadyCallback


import com.google.android.gms.maps.*;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.*;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class MapPane extends Activity implements OnMapReadyCallback {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

  /*
   * From the android.app.Activity javadoc:
   * Derived classes must call through to the super class's 
   * implementation of this method. If they do not,
   * an exception will be thrown.
   */
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

  setContentView(R.layout.map_activity);

  MapFragment mapFragment = (MapFragment) getFragmentManager()
    .findFragmentById(R.id.map);

  /*
   * MapFragment.getMapAsync (OnMapReadyCallback callback)
   * 
   * public interface OnMapReadyCallback {
   *   abstract void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap)
   * }
   *
   * So here, "this" refers to this instance of MapPane
   * as an com.google.android.gms.maps.OnMapReadyCallback
   */
  mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
}


  /*

@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) {
  LatLng sydney = new LatLng(-33.867, 151.206);

  map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
  map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(sydney, 13));

  map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
    .title("Sydney")
    .snippet("The most populous city in Australia.")
  .position(sydney));
}
}
