[gradsusr] KML output

[Chris Steele]

Hi everyone,

I've noticed an additional issue that grads doesn't appear to distinguish between standard enclosed polygons and those with holes in them. If I display the output on either google earth or maps, then those polygons which contain holes have a vertical line from the perimeter of the polygon to each hole. Has anyone encountered this issue before?

Regards

Chris

Hi all,

I'm having some issues producing KML output (with polygon option; grads version 2.1.a3). I'm trying to specify my own values for the polygons, but unfortunately the output is always for different values to the one that I specify. For example:

'define east=ugrdl125'
'define north=vgrdl125'
'set clevs 0.5 1.5 2.5 3.5 4.5 5.5 6.5 7.5 8.5 9.5 10.5 11.5 12.5 13.5 14.5 15.5 16.5 17.5 18.5 19.5 20.5 21.5'
'set gxout kml'
'set kml -poly euro4_10m_wind'
'd mag(east,north)'

Gives some sample output as....

<styleUrl>#14</styleUrl>
<name>1.5 to 3.5</name>
<Polygon>
<altitudeMode>clampToGround</AltitudeMode>
<tessellate>1</tessellate>
<outerBoundaryIs>
<LinearRing>
<coordinates>
......
</coordinates>

Is there a different way to specify the contours for KML output that I'm not aware of?

Regards

Chris
