Hi all, I have a large KML file that draws polygons of every county in the United States. I wrote a parser that converted the KML data I need into database fields. So when I'm looking at Florida on the map, for example, I pull only the coordinates for Florida counties and plot them as polygons.
I basically make the database request, loop through each individual county returned, split the returned coordinates string by spaces and then by commas, and plot the polygons county by county. It works well when the county coordinates make up a single closed polygon. The problem I'm running into is when a county is made up of several polygons, like Miami-Dade County in Florida, for example. Google Maps will only plot one of them and omit the rest. It's my understanding that to plot several polygons in Google Maps, each polygon needs its own array. In my case, my raw data is in one long string (and eventually converted to one array of lat/lng coordinates), as shown below, so I don't really know where one polygon ends and the next begins. Is there some way to make Google Maps plot all the points? Thanks :).
