Hello,

I have a KML file that defines the trajectory of a balloon as it ascends 
through the atmosphere and eventually descents back to the ground.  It's 
encoded with the latitude and longitude coordinates at various points along the 
way.  It also contains time stamps for each latitude, longitude location.  I 
have a NetCDF file that contains wind data that I've already been able to load 
into ParaView.   I'd like to visualize the balloon's trajectory as it passes 
through the wind data set, if possible.

What is the best way to get the KML information into ParaView?  I'm running on 
Linux and/or OSX (whatever works best!).  Perhaps the conversion process is a 
multistage operation (KML -> Shapefile -> ???), that's OK.  If anyone could 
just tell me the tools and the file formats used, that would be great.

Thank you very much for your time,
-Mike
