Google Maps KML for RTMM
« on: November 28, 2014, 08:54:11 AM »
Dear all,

Inspired by the GREAT work of the RTMM Team, I'm happy to make my own humble contribution to this wonderful community...

This is a Google Maps KML covering the whole RTMM area and is constructed based on FSAddon/Orbx packages (PFJ, PNW, TFX, etc.) and RTMM sceneries incl. USFS cabins and the historical lighthouse sceneries shipped with these packages. I have tried to keep placemarks aligned with "RTMM style" - you'll find descriptions for almost all RTMM spots coupled with useful web-links, where possible.

Although not supported by RTMM yet, I have also included placemarks for the owners of "Barnstormers".

An asterisk (*) next to the placemark's title means "water freezes in winter".

You can view the map by downloading and opening it in Google Earth, or even simpler - launch Google Maps, then copy/paste my link into the address box and press Enter. :)

DOWNLOAD

Please let me know if you find something is missing!

Enjoy!

Rustam

Looks great, a lot of work on your part. Could you tell a "novice" how to use this?  I'll create a "readme" for it, then we can support it on the Here2There page. Just some short notes describing the "use" of it would be great.  You can shoot the doc to me at misty@jdlinn.com and I'll get it.

Got it Rustam ... sent you a return email.  Well, yes, we do a bunch of work at RTMM, but this is a very big contribution by Rustam!  If you click on a site, it brings up maps/info, etc. Pretty amazing.  I'll put it "up" for folks on the Here2There page ... just working on details with Rustam, watch for News and Notams. Thank you Rustam!

I'll mention it in the News and Notams ... but I have it "up" on the Here2There page (look in the top index for KMZ Google Earth) ... that takes you down to the table. It is right above the starting points table. That is really a great piece of work, a heck of a lot of work! When you click on the item, "our RTMM" information comes up ... darned well-done.  I may make some minor changes per Rustam's suggestions, but it is "up" to see.

Btw, all images (thumbnails, maps, etc.) will take you to an external file host. This is to save on RTMM server costs...
Only the trip tickets link to original RTMM source.

Hope you guys don't mind! ;)
