Hi. I've been playing with Google Maps for a moment. Actually, only "visually" interesting things there seem to be: - placemarks, with choosable icons - polygons, with customizable style - fill color and opacity, border (stroke) color, opacity and width - lines (paths), customizable like polygon's stroke above
All these may (or must) have names and descriptions; the latter may be plaintext or html ("rich text").
I assume these elements are a minimum to be done. I can handle that easily (I guess :-) ).
How close to your expectations is this subset? Did I miss some essential features?
Another thing: what is the expected resulting SVG if the input KML contains, say, just a placemark with name, description and point with coordinates? Is it going to be a placemark's image (icon) and a rectangle (or something) with the texts? Or is it going to involve some background graphics (terrain's map)?
