This week focused on converting map layers to KML files and uploading to Google Earth as well as creating a Google Earth Tour. The tour was a neat feature I'd never experimented with. For our map and tour we focused on south Florida. The map created was a dot density map with surface water layers added. Before we uploaded our layers to Google Earth we practiced using the Layer to KML tool to convert the layer into a format that could be used in Google Earth. We also learned how to organize layers and add images in Google Earth.
The tour was an overview of major Florida metropolitan areas. After creating placemarks for each area I wanted to feature, I gave an view of the entirety of south Florida and the zoomed in and out on the placemarks then panned and zoomed in, out and around the downtown areas.
Here is a copy of my Google Earth map.
