David, John, et al. I think adding kml support to Babel is a great idea! Nice!
I think expanded GIS data views will be very helpful in exhibits, and I'm working on polygons for my timeline/googleMaps mashup as well. You may already be familiar with this project. These folks have a number of useful things at: http://code.google.com/p/primary-maps-2008/ Without installing any sort of big GIS tool, I found this python script particularly handy: http://code.google.com/p/primary-maps-2008/source/browse/trunk/shpUtils.py which suggested to me that it might be possible to induce Babel to handle ESRI shapefiles as well. Unfortunately, shapefiles for medieval manorial boundaries are not exactly thick on the ground. ;-) Jon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
