Improving the Visualization of Geospatial Data Using Google's Improving the Visualization of Geospatial Data Using Google’s KML THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ebenezer Attua Odoi Jr Graduate Program in Geodetic Science and Surveying The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Prof. Alan Saalfeld, Advisor Prof. Ralph Von Frese, Committee Member Copyright by Ebenezer Attua Odoi Jr 2012 Abstract The Geospatial community continues to search for effective tools that produce visualizations of the nature of the earth and its features. With the aid of geobrowsers like Google Maps and Google Earth, geoscientists can now tell their ‘tales’ in ways that nonscientists can grasp and respond to in terms of awareness, policy formulation, application development and integration in ventures that usher human existence forward. This thesis explores diverse visualization techniques using Google’s Keyhole Markup Language (KML) that will benefit the viewing of geological data. In the process the thesis will show the potential of geobrowsers and KML as a unified programming language. Though there has been a proliferation of digital map viewers like geobrowsers being developed, thematic mapping capabilities, unfortunately, has been left out. The thesis will explore how KML can be used to achieve thematic mapping, though KML itself was not specifically designed for this application. Current possibilities for making proportional symbol maps, chart maps, choropleth maps and animated maps with KML will be presented. The innovation of the thesis is the conversion of a database table into a thematic map, using proportional symbols to represent the data. The visualization implementations developed in this research show that KML and geobrowsers offer great potential for thematic mapping, but there are significant issues that need to be resolved. ii This thesis will open a wider audience to implement visualization that they prefer to see via using their own datasets. iii Dedication This document is dedicated to my family. iv Acknowledgments I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to my advisor, Professor Alan Saalfeld., who provided encouragement, guidance and constructive discussion throughout my research. Despite his tight schedule, Professor Saalfeld offered close supervision and critical comments that have greatly helped me develop an understanding of the subject as well as draft my thesis. I would also like to show my gratitude to Professor Ralph Von Frese for his participation as a committee member. Undoubtedly, I owe my deepest gratitude to my parents who have helped and supported me while studying in the U.S. Special thanks to all my colleagues and members of the GIS Laboratory at the Ohio State University. v Vita 1996 - 1998 ..................................................High School, Okuapemman Sec, Ghana 2000 - 2004 ..................................................Bsc.

  • A Macro That Creates U.S. Census Tracts Keyhole Markup Language
    Paper 2418-2018 A Macro that Creates U.S Census Tracts Keyhole Markup Language Files for Google Map Use Ting Sa, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center ABSTRACT This paper introduces a macro that can generate the Keyhole Markup Language (KML) files for U.S. census tracts. The generated KML files can be used directly by Google Maps to add customized census tracts layers with user-defined colors and transparencies. When someone clicks on the census tracts layers in Google Maps, customized information is shown. To use the macro, the user needs to prepare only a simple SAS® input data set and download the related KML files from the U.S. census Bureau. The paper includes all the SAS code for the macro and provides examples that show you how to use the macro as well as how to display the KML files in Google Maps. INTRODUCTION KML file is a file that can be used to put different layers onto the google map, like a point, a line or a polygon area. Also inside the KML file, you can define the styles of the layers, like changing the color and transparency of the layers, adding information to the layers etc. The U.S Census Bureau provides the census tracts KML file for each state. However, it is one file for the whole state, therefore, if the user only wants to select certain census tracts, or the user wants to customize the census tracts with special background color, transparency or customized information, the user can not directly use the KML file from the U.S Census Bureau.

Select the Google Earth Pro icon “ ,” or search in the start menu for “Google Earth Pro.” When Google Earth Pro has been opened, you will get this screen. A “Start-Up Tip” window will automatically open when Google Earth Pro starts. These include hints and instructions about many popular features in the program. If you do not want to see this window each time you start the program, you can uncheck the “Show tips at start-up” box and then either click “close” or click the red “X” at the top right of the window (see above). After the “Start-Up Tip” window is closed, you will see a view of the earth, with a “Tour Guide” ribbon at the bottom of the main, map area of the screen. The “Tour Guide” will show you photos that may be of interest in the region you are viewing. You can scroll through them to explore the feature or the surrounding area of what you are interested in. These are often used when creating customized tours or videos in Google Earth Pro. 2 Google Earth Pro You may instead wish to maximize your viewing area in the map window.
