What does that add that wasn't there before? Will it execute javascript? I guess the thing that would worry me though is having it not working with older versions of Google Earth, how do older versions handle features that are only in the latest? Dynamic charts should be possible using dynamic symbolizers, see thread on http://www.nabble.com/Dynamic-symbolizers-plus-google-charts--to22291811.html Can you tell me more about the full support of HTML?

It would be even more fantastic if there would be more flexibility in the creation of dynamic kml (e.g. firing up dynamic charts based on db content). Any plans in that direction?!

The KML 'dynamic' output using templates is a start but with Google Earth 5's full support for HTML it would be fantastic if dynamic charts based on db content could be included for example. Are there any thoughts along these lines, examples of hacks, etc.?! Exposing the data to Google search is great, really nice work!

This is great to hear, and we look forward to putting it to use. Now it just comes down to getting agencies, especially those we work with in Jamaica, to share their data. Do you see watermarks playing a more significant role now? Chris,

I am working towards enabling generation of Geo/Atom feeds as digest from FGDC metadata collections and then the construction of sitemap.xml files, based on our discussions post-GSDI-10. By making the content searchable (Ed Parsons recommended RSS/Atom) it'll allow us exposure into the main search engines through the registration of the sitemap files. I know that ESRI was dabbling in this with their Portal Toolkit but were unable to get a successful Google harvest going on the Geospatial OneStop. I doubt that all content will be crawlable in ArcGIS Server, but all data collection descriptions might be... I've been in communication with the Geo Search group at Google and they said that only georss:point is recognized for search these days, as most locations are realized as points. They do promise to support box and polygon indexing within the year, however, which will give us more control over finding and ranking geo resources with more complex footprints. I like the premise.
