<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:

propose the KML 2.2 support to the Google summer of code as a new possible project.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Nowadays, GPE (GML Parser Engine) it’s a
framework born by the gvSIG team to read and write several standard geographic file
formats based on the XML language. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The largest geographic language standard was GML from
OGC, which structure was very similar with KML, GPX and so on.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>GPE works as an XML pull parser, when a new tag is
found, if match with some tag from the defined standard (KML 2.1 for instance)
then it is launched a binding to resolve the correct action to do.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Those actions are based on checking attributes, children
tags and launch events to the GPE consumer handler. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>This handler it’s a Content Handler extended by
the consumer which receive the data from the standard file formats.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>This framework uses GPL License and can be used
separately from gvSIG by external software implementations.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Currently, GPE KML plug in parser only understand KML
2.1 version. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>New KML 2.2 version plug in it’s recommended to
be implemented, much more if some extensions like Google Touring support based
on KML 2.2 are being added to the parser.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Adding this support to GPE can improve the interoperability
between Google Earth (Google Maps) and gvSIG… and of course between software
which uses GPE to read/write KML.</span></font></p>

belong to the gvSIG and gvSIG Mobile developer
team and I worked with Google API’s.</span></font></p>
