Re: [mapguide-users] Integration with Google Earth

Hi Rodolfo,
we are going a bit aside here from MGOS. I use ArcMap 9.3 and the tool is located in ArcToolBox->ConversionTools->ToKML->Layer to KML

Hi Stefan, which version of arcmap converts shp to kml?
I have arcmap 9.2 and I have not found this tool.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

If you save that file -mapagent.fcgi in fact you will save the output of 
this module, i.e. the requested kml/kmz file. However it might be 
windowed this kml file - it will contain part of the layer and will try 
to open it dynamically when you move around in Google Earth, but this 
will for sure contain the kml file.
The simplest perhaps will be to send me these files. You can zip and 
send to my e-mail - I will use ArcMap to convert - it takes a couple of 
minutes.Please add some info about coordinate system. ArcMap is an ESRI 
product, and is not free. AT ALL!

Hi again,

 
I tried with "web tier test page" but it opens a window with a dialog 
box to download the file "mapagent.fcgi" (I suppose that it will be 
for php or something). Where can I download the ArcMap? (files to 
convert are cyl_mun_25.dbf, cyl_mun_25.idx, cyl_mun_25.shp and 
cyl_mun_25.shx (municipal boundaries), espacios.dbf, espacios.idx, 
espacios.shp, espacios.shx, espacios.sbn and espacios.sbx (natural 
areas) and vias.dbf, vias.idx, vias.shp and vias.shx (roads), in total 
17.4 MB).
 
Thanks.

Hi,


Have you tried with ArcMap ? Or perhaps you could try to convert a 
mapguide layer to KML using web tier test page - 
http://localhost:8008/mapguide/mapagent/index.html ?
I have converted several files with both methods and it works. It was 
some time ago, but I remember there was a problem in transformation if 
the coordinate system of the layer is not Decmal degrees (lat/lon) on 
WGS 84
If it is a single file and you need just the KML output, I can try 
converting it for you

    Hi,

     
    I´m trying to convert some data in shp format to kml format with

    Shp2kml program and I have two problems: 1 - one of the data, I
    can´t convert because the attribute is "too long, > 100 characters
    (240)", 2 - opening the other data with Google Earth, I get the
    map upside down, as if seen with a mirror, and displaced a few
    meters/kilometers on the right. The coordinate system of the data
    is LOCAL_CS ["Non-Earth (Meter)", LOCAL_DATUM ["Local Datum", 0],
    UNIT ["Meter", 1], AXIS ["X", EAST], AXIS [" Y", NORTH]], but I
    can´t get it shp2kml so I leave the default "WGS 1984 Global
    Definition" and I put "projected UTM (meters), Northern
    Hemisphere, UTM Zone 32".

     
    Any help is appreciated.
     
    Thanks.
