Subject: RE: [aprssig] Google Earth interfaces?
I'll put all my replies in one since I got many useful replies.
I'll be trying out aprskml, that looks like it'll help a lot, thanks Scott.
Andrew Rich, I had no idea you could have Google Earth directly pulling the
updated locations. I do want the paths, though, which aprskml does
provide.
As for UI-View, sorry Andy, but this Google Earth interface is actually for
non-amateur people that are going to be observing hikers as part of a
research project. We're trying to reduce the amount of software the
observers need to install and configure. All of them already have Google
Earth, so the simple addition of aprskml plus Andrew's suggestions is the
solution they'd need.
Now, here's one thing the observers have asked for: track playback in
Google Earth. I demoed Xastir to them (since I have Xastir on my machines)
and they like seeing the playback, but has anyone ever seen it using Google
Earth?
I'll have to play around with aprskml and see what it can do. Thanks for
all the help, the observers will be happy with this so far. Now hopefully
the research work goes well.

Hey in findu, I find that when I refresh the satellite maps, I keep having
to zoom in, then zoom in, then zoom in.
I did try the url tag that is supposed to set the zoom level but did not
seem to do anything ?
