kmz

I'm developing a web page with a Google maps application. Currently, I have a functional search bar and map that displays three KML/KMZ layers. I need to be able to toggle between each of the layers, either display one of them, two of them or all three. There is a similar function in Google Earth, but I need it in Google Maps. How can I do this? Here is my code for the map and search bar: <script type="text/javascript"> var geocoder; var map; var marker; function initialize() { geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder (); var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng (40.43, -74.00); var myOptions = { zoom:

Is there any way I can use a KMZ file in Google Maps? My KML file is around 10.7MB so it doesn't load on Google Maps. KMZ file is around 2MB. The only way I see it is to have multiple KML but it's too much work. I might end up doing that, but was just wondering if KMZ can be used? Thanks. Yes, you can specify a KMZ file using the Maps API: var kmzLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer('http://www.kmzlinks.com/redirect.asp?id=110&file=PalmIsland%2Ekmz'); kmzLayer.setMap(map); In your specific case, your script should look like this: <script type="text/javascript"> function initialize() { var

Is there a way to just add an image file into a kmz file using Java API for KML (JAK)? I can create a kml file with no problem, but I'm trying to just embed a resources (such as an images folder with some image files), but the marshalAsKmz method takes only Kml objects as additional files, so I can't figure out how to just include extra images. I've been using JAK for over a year on a project. I use it to create the KML, then I marshal it as just plain KML (not KMZ). I created a separate utility class that uses the Java SE 'Zip' classes to manually create the KMZ. It works just fine. A KMZ is

Is it possible to create one KMZ file that is composed of several smaller KMZ files? I would prefer to not have to manually merge the actual KML entities, but I will if that's the only option. A KMZ file can have any number of inner KML files (NOT KMZ files). But the first entry in the KMZ file must be the root KML file (typically named doc.kml ), which may include network links with references to other KML or KMZ files. Several inner KML files, for example, could reference a shared style (in another KML file) via relative URLs. The inner KML files can nest to any level of depth to other KML

I created a hello world program to load a local kml file (borrowed from google's docs): var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer("http://localhost:8080/kml/cta.kml"); This does not work (nothing gets loaded). However, when I change that line to: var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer("http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ggeoxml/cta.kml"); it loads properly. Both kml files are identical. What do I need to do to get it to load when serving it myself? (I tried both absolute and relative paths, and I know the paths I am using are correct...) Also I added the correct mime type to my
