[mapserver-users] KML for WMS Service

[Carlos Ruiz]

All,

PostgreSQL can output as KML using the AsKML function. Hope this helps you to, at 
least, generate KML files.

All,

I don't think I'm answering your question directly, but I've
learned a few things about how Google earth imports WMS data directly, and that
in turn showed me how to export the layers from Google Earth into KML.  So now I
can write the appropriate KML output.

GE will import WMS services directly, but it's user interface leave a bit
to be desired on the operational side.  I've been toying around with the
same ideas though, where MapServer provides the result as a KML for GE use.

So, my next step would be to make use of a MapServer template to generate the
KML code (using the WMS export from GE as a starting point).  But this is where
I stopped in the steps, got other more pressing stuff at the moment.

Hi list.
I just a little question.

How I can create a KML file to show my WMS server in Google Earth?

Thanks
