26 September 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.

Well, now the KMZ set for Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is updated

Turns out I was mistaken. I didn't have a local copy, but I it post a set some time ago. This version adds the new overlay and length meaurements. I also noticed an odd detail in the entry area for the pits that resulted in three possible versions. Two add chicanes, but no length. In fact, all use the same pavement.

Get it here.

I have completely replaced the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve map

That map was designed before I made my maps editable. So I started over. What got me to check on it was that I found I hadn't done a KMZ for that track. Well, the map needed help. New map works great.
