22 November 2009 - Will Pittenger's stuff for Google Earth and maps

My name is Will Pittenger. I have been making KMZ sets for Google Earth for a long time. After I starting making those, I wanted overlays for my sets. I was unsatisfied with the accuracy of the images available at Wikimedia Commons. So I started making my own with Inkscape and uploading them. Then I needed a place for anyone that liked my KMZ sets and/or maps to find others. For a while, a simple blog sufficed. But, once I started getting requests, I knew I needed something better. This site is the result. You are welcome to set up an account. Some activities are for registered users only. Take your time poking around and let me know what you think.

Snetterton in England has a KMZ in progress

You might have guessed, but this is taking a long time. There is a lot here. Most of what I found is either a Kart track or an RC track. Either way, it will take most of this week to finish.

I will be not working for the next two days

Unfortunately, I need to attend a visitation and funeral for my Aunt. She died last week of pancreatic cancer after a three year battle. I hope to return sometime either Monday or Tuesday local time (Illinois).
