Displaying KML/KMZ files in Google Maps


Bjørn Sandvik har virkelig forstået at få tematisering på Google Map/Earth bragt på kortet så at sige.

Bjørn Sandvik has really made thematic mapping and Google Map/Earth on the map so to speak.

KML/KMZ files can be overlaid on Google Maps, either on theGoogle Maps website, or by using the GGeoXML class of the Google Maps API (see example).



The KMZ file (download) displayed above was generated by theThematic Mapping Engine. Only a subset of the KML standard is so far supported by Google Maps. The shaded plygons are properly displayed, but not the screen overlays (title and legend) and balloons. The different placement of the zoom bar in Google Maps and Google Earth makes it difficult to display the same KML/KMZ file in multiple viewers.
