16 September 2008 - 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.

Buttonwillow Motorsports Park

I did an SVG for WikiMedia Commons on this track a while back. I am just now getting to making the KMZ. Here it is. In addition to the overlay based on the SVG, I added dozens of track configurations, turn placemarks, and more. I also added many track configurations for a karting track that is part of the facility.

Virginia International Raceway

I included not one, but six overlays, one for each track configuration. There are also polygons for each track configuration, turn placemarks, and more.
