Parsley Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 well leave me your address and i will put the thing right on your bathroom lol...all i was left with was cities yours was bensalem so thats what i went with. To be honest my idea for this map was a basic, simple concept. No need for Tombo (or anyone else) to spend hours producing a detailed map. I can see adding new member/city as they come along, but getting overly specific on location seems a little "much". If someone is up to do all that, more power to them.

I agree plus you really don't want your personal address out on the internet, right? If your town has more than one zip code, give Tom your zip code so he can get it as close to you as possible. (ie West Chester has 3 or so zip codes and Philly has tons). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab94 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Too bad there isnt a way to do it in Google Earth. So you can use the current weather overlays like radar etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Lightning Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Too bad there isnt a way to do it in Google Earth. So you can use the current weather overlays like radar etc. There is. You turn all of his data into a .kml file and then it would just plot it. I don't know how to do it, but it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazwoper Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 There is. You turn all of his data into a .kml file and then it would just plot it. I don't know how to do it, but it can be done. Its easy. If you have Google earth (and if you don't just download it for free) click on the "KML" link at the left in Tom's map and it will open the file in Google earth. Then just simply click on the "weather" tab in google earth and it contains radar. I just did this. Piece of cake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
