There appears to be a bug in Google Earth??? The spot linestrings (blue lines, from the RBN network in this case) are origined at two different points in Africa: Here's the detailed view of the two origins: This does not happen with the same kml file in Google's MyMaps(project specific map): My initial hypothesis is that this might be related to QSO coordinates containing a different number of decimal points of precision compared to the spotting coordinates: QSO: -106.578838,32.382328,-111.714101266416,40.2823153730325,2023/01/30 16:21,0,14058.3,KJ7BES RBN spot: -106.556812, 32.373049,-94.6250,38.6458,2023/01/30 09:41:00,5,14058.3,AC0C-1 |
I separated the QSOs into their own file and the spots into their own file: |
The next hypothesis by the unschooling gang here was that the power level being 0 in the case of QSOs might be causing the issue. The power levels don't carry through to the kml files, but because they are used in the color selection for the kml linestrings, they could in fact be the issue. The spot linstrings were modified to have a power of 0: The result was the same in both Google Earth (still broken) and MyMaps(still working) with the exception that the spot lines were now green. |
The unschooling gang's next hypothesis, (I now had THREE extra sets of eyes on the problem), was that there the sepcific coordinates of the QSOs might work while the coordinates of the spots for some reason did not. To test this we placed a single spot in a file and modified its coordinats to match those of a qso: We were down to a single incorrect mapping, but it was still incorrect. (We also noticed there was an equitorial line that did not correspond to any of the linestrings, but can be seen in some of the other results above. MyMaps still worked correctly. |
Add featuer so maps can be overlaid on Google Earth by loadin in the KML file. Use the formatting examples at
