I used Google Earth to visualize some GBIF data for our new portal
rollout in July
Sharks and Rays of South Africa links occurrence data to taxon-
related icons so that you get some notion of what all these data
actually refer

I also used it to visualize migration patterns of barn swallows and
distribution of hummingbird data but this is a bit of a longer video
with Google Earth only at the end.

Great to see map information with the species, and using Google
Earth is exciting.
It would be nice if some representation or preview of the map
appeared right on the page... worth taking a look at the Google
Maps API. Helps you know if it's worth the extra click & switching
to the other app. Also, did you know that KMLs will show up on
maps.google.com too? It's called "kml on maps" - might help with
what you're looking for.
Best,

Hello,
I will not be attending the meeting this fall but thought that this
may be of interest to those interested in species pages models.
I am working on species pages that include the use of video. The
videos
were only added a month ago and are a bit rudimentary
(with budget-conscious equipment) but the potential now seems truly
limitless.
