AFF Mapper - programe freeware

My colleague geogprof writes "I have released a program called AFF Mapper. This is
a Windows based package that was specifically designed for creating KML based mapping files from TIGER shapes and tables available from the Census Bureau's American FactFinder web page. While it was designed for these files, it can be used to create KML files for other shapes (that are in decimal degrees with NAD83 or WGS 84) and external attribute files. The resulting KML files can be viewed in several free mapping packages such as Google Earth and ArcGIS Explorer. To download a copy of
the program and the user manual, go to
[1]http://tnatlas.geog.utk.edu/downloadfree.htm. This is freeware, copy till you drop. Source code will be released at a later date." See also related stories below.

Un comentariu:

  1. Professor Nitu,
    I am happy to be named a friend! I hope you and your students find this work useful. Sometime later this year I will release code on how to create websites that use Google Maps/Earth to map information in a back end database. You can see an example at http://ctasgis02.psur.utk.edu/tokml.

    Hopefully, I will complete an e-book on how to program for KML mapping engines, both desktop and web based.

    Cheers,

    Bruce Ralston
