Great, keep us all in the loop with how it goes.

You'll find that using the WFS outputformat for KML/KMZ works very well, as it is passed through the OGR driver; I'm not aware of many using WMS for KML/KMZ output. But yes, I imagine if you travel down that path you may eventually hit my same issue from 2011 :)

Hi Jeff,

Thanx for the info.  There may be something missing in the mapfile, I'll double 
check.

WFS is not an option for me.  I need a <NetworkLink> element that points to a 
GetMap request for each layer.

Cheers,

Yves

I have been more successful with KML output through WFS, by setting an OUTPUTFORMAT 
block in your mapfile and then passing &outputformat=kml in your WFS request.  
Is that an option for you??

Hi All,



Haven’t been here in a while …  I’m striving to find out how to either
query MS or run a command to generate a KML document ready to be
ingested by Google Earth.  I’ve seen the documentation mentioning
“Output can then be generated using MapServer cgi (example mode=map) or
through a WMS request.” [1] and I understand the capability has been
there since 6.0, but I can’t get around to obtaining a KML document that
has <NetworkLink> elements pointing to the GetMap requests of particular
layers.  I do get KML documents (with FORMAT=kml), but they miss a
<NetworkLink> element in the <Folder> element corresponding to a layer
from which GE could fetch an image :



<Folder>

    <name>MyName</name>

    <visibility>1</visibility>

    <styleUrl>#LayerFolder_check</styleUrl>

   <!-- NetworkLink> MISSING </NetworkLink -->

</Folder>



Examples or pointers anyone ?



TIA,



Yves
