Excel and google earth

These features are only available in Google Earth Pro.

Import spreadsheet data

To add location data from a spreadsheet into Google Earth, import the latitude and longitude info. You’ll need a text file that is delimited, which means each line is a separate piece of coordinates info. Every location that you import from your text file is converted to a Google Earth placemark and listed in your Places.

Add longitude and latitude from a CSV file

If you would like to practice importing data, you can download a sample CSV file to use with the steps. Or follow these steps with your own CSV file.

  1. On your computer, open Google Earth Pro.
  2. Click File and then Import.
  3. Browse to the location of the CSV file and open it.
  4. In the box that appears, next to Field Type, choose Delimited.
  5. Next to Delimited, choose Comma.
  6. Use the preview pane to ensure your data has imported correctly and click Next.
  7. Next to «This dataset does not contain latitude/longitude information,» leave the box unchecked.
  8. Select the fields in your spreadsheet that contain the latitude and longitude data and click Next.
    Optional: Specify the type of each field in your dataset.
  9. Click Finish. Google Earth begins geocoding your data.
  10. To use a style template, click Yes.
  11. Click OK.
  12. Create a new style template, or use a previously generated template.

You can adjust the name, color, icon, and height for your placemark. If you like, save your selections as a template to use in the future.

Import addresses

If you want to see multiple locations around the world, you can import addresses into Google Earth Pro. Each address that you import is converted to a placemark on the Earth.

Guidelines for importing addresses

  • You can only import addresses located within the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, France, Italy, Germany, and Spain.
  • You cannot use an address that contains a P.O. box.
  • Single-address field: You can define the street, city, state, country, and zip code in a single field.
  • Multiple address fields: You can also define street, city, state, country, and zip code in multiple fields.
  • Partial address default values: If some of your points have partial addresses, you can use the data import wizard to define default values for missing fields, such as state or zip code.

Import address data from a CSV file

If you would like to practice importing data, you can download a sample CSV file to use with the steps. Or follow these steps with your own CSV file.

  1. On your computer, open Google Earth Pro.
  2. Click File and then Import.
  3. Browse to the location of the CSV file and open it. 
  4. In the message that appears, next to Field Type, choose Delimited.
  5. Next to Delimited, choose Comma.
  6. Use the preview pane to ensure your data has imported correctly.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Next to «This dataset does not contain latitude/longitude information,» check the box and click Next.
  9. Choose «Addresses are broken into multiple fields.»
  10. Under «Select Address Field(s),» look over the names to make sure they’re correct and click Next.
  11. Confirm the list of fields and the type of data selected for each and click Back.
  12. Click Finish. Google Earth begins geocoding your data.
  13. To use a style template, click Yes.
  14. Click OK.

If you like, save the template as a file (.kst) that you can use in the future.

Google Earth displays your address data as icons in the 3D viewer. You can edit the properties of these placemarks as you would any other placemark.

Import images

You can open GIS imagery files to project images embedded with display information over specific map coordinates in the 3D viewer. Files using NAD83 projection are not supported by Google Earth.

  • TIFF (.tif), including GeoTiff and compressed TIFF files
  • National Imagery Transmission Format (.ntf)
  • Erdas Imagine Images (.img)

Other image files

You can also import images if you manually edit their coordinates for correct positioning. Imagery files without the correct projection information will not be accurately re-projected.

  • Portable Network Graphic (.png)
  • Joint Photographic Expert (.jpg)
  • Atlantis MFF Raster (.hdr)
  • PCIDSK Database File (.pix)
  • Portable Pixmap Format (.pnm)
  • Device Independent Bitmap (.bmp)

Open GIS images

You can open GIS images in Google Earth to view them over a map image.

  1. Open your computer, open Google Earth Pro.
  2. Click File and then Open. Then, choose the file you want to import.The overlay edit window appears.
  3. Set the location of the new overlay in any folder inside the ‘Places’ panel.
  4. Choose the properties for the GIS image:
  • The reprojected image is saved as an overlay. The image is saved under the Google Earth directory on your hard drive. The name of the PNG file is based on the source file name and the scaling or cropping parameters selected when importing the overlay. (See below for more information on scaling or cropping an image.
  • For larger image files, reprojection can take some time. If you have cropped or scaled an input image, or if you are reprojecting an image that uses more texture memory, you will see a progress meter while the reprojection occurs. You can cancel the operation at any time.
  • Images that contain no projection information are treated as ordinary overlay files. You can position the image manually as you would an overlay image.
  • Images that contain incorrect or unsupported projection information will not be imported. A dialog box indicates that the reprojection cannot be performed and the image will not be imported.

Save GIS images

Once you have imported imagery data, you can save content changes made to the imported GIS data:

Move the imported imagery to remain in your ‘My Places’ folder. If you have already placed the imagery overlay within the ‘My Places’ folder, any changes you make to it are automatically saved and viewable when you start Google Earth.

Save the imagery overlay as a KMZ file. If you wish to remove the imported imagery from your ‘My Places’ folder:

  1. Right-click the item and select Save Place As from the pop-up menu.
  2. Then, save the GIS overlay as a KMZ file to your computer’s hard drive or other accessible file location.
  3. Delete the overlay from your ‘My Places’ list and open it when you need it.

Import vector data

You can import files with points, lines, paths, and polygons onto your maps.

  1. Open Google Earth Pro.
  2. Click File and then Open.
  3. Select the type of file you want to import or choose All data import formats.

Once imported, the vector elements appear in the 3D viewer and the imported file is listed under the ‘Temporary Places’ folder.

Note: If you don’t use a style template and your data does not contain a ‘Name’ field, the first available field that contains text is used as the label for data.

Use third party vector data

Most third party GIS vector data comes as a collection of support files. If expected data does not display in the 3D viewer, it might be due to missing support files.

Vector files and required support files:

  • MapInfo (TAB)
    • MAP ID
    • DAT
  • ESRI Shape (SHP)
    • SHX Index
    • PRJ (required if projection is not WGS84)
    • DBF (attribute data)
  • Generic text files

Import generic text files

You can define your own point data and import it using generic text files.

Generic text files must:

  • Have named columns whose values are separated either by commas, spaces, or tabs.
  • Be saved as either CSV or TXT format.
  • Display coordinates as:
    • Degrees, minutes, seconds (DMS)
    • Decimal degrees (DDD)
    • Degrees, minutes, with decimal seconds (DMM)
  • Contain one or more fields that specify the location of the point on the earth.
  • Not use a mix of geographic coordinates and address fields in a single file.

You can use latitude and longitude coordinates to indicate the position of the point data in your text file.

Optional and Descriptive Fields

You can use any number of fields in your custom data file to label and describe points in Google Earth Pro.

Optional fields can be defined as text or strings:

  • A string field can contain both numbers and alphabetic characters.
  • Strings must be either enclosed in quotation marks or contain white space so that it cannot be interpreted as a number.

With style templates, you can use these field types to create useful visual effects in the 3D viewer such as graphs or color-coding of data based on the values in the fields:

  • Integer
  • Floating point value

Apply a style template

You can apply a style template to vector data that contains fields you want to have displayed in the 3D viewer.

  • Style templates can only be applied to placemarks that contain extended schema data, such as those imported in a vector data file.
  • You can use the same style template for different data that has the same fields if the template settings are adjusted to represent the data properly.

To apply a style template:

  1. After you import data to your ‘Places’ panel, select the data folder and click Edit and then Apply Style Template.
  2. Click Use existing template.
  3. In the ‘Compatible templates’ list, choose the style template you want to apply to your data set.
  4. To edit the style template, click Edit selected template and then OK.
  5. Choose a field from your data that you want to use as a name, or label, for your data. Note: This name appears in the 3D viewer and in the Places panel that lists the data points.
  6. Click Color to map an element of your data to color styles.
  7. Click Icon to map an element of your data to one or more icons.
  8. Click Height to map a height value to a data element.
  9. Click OK.

You’ll see your data and defined values in the 3D viewer.

Map data fields to different features

Map color styles

You can apply color to selected fields in your imported data. In this case, color is applied to the feature depending upon the type of data imported:

  • Icons are colored with point data
  • Lines are colored when applying to lines or paths
  • Solid polygons are colored with shape data

Use the color style to color these elements in a meaningful way depending upon both the data type and the field data within the entire set.

Use a single color for all features

If you want to use one color for all the points or lines from your imported data, select the ‘Use single color’ option. Then, click the colored square next to the option. From the color selector, choose a color or define your own color to apply to the data.

Use random colors

To use a variety of colors that are applied randomly by Google Earth Pro, select the ‘Use random colors’ option. If you are also supplying an icon for point data, the color is added to the existing color of the icon.

Set colors based on field values

If you want to compare features with a data set, use colors to define different field values.

Examples:

  • Set a short range of colors based on the square footage of real estate listings.
  • Set a range of colors for shape files showing average household income.

Follow steps 1-6 under Apply a style template.

  1. Select the Set color from field option in the «Color» tab. Then, choose a color from the Set color dropdown. Here, you can choose either numeric fields or text fields from your data. 
  2. To change the color range, click each color block and set the starting and ending color. Google Earth Pro calculates the range between the two color values.
  3. To group a range of numeric fields, choose a number of buckets.
  4. To display data elements for places based on color bucket, create subfolders.To show or hide the display of color groups, use the check box next to the folder. Note: Only one sub-folder can be assigned for either color or icon display.
  5. To reverse the order of the color range and their element assignments, click Reverse order.
  6. Click OK to save your style template.

Map icons to point data

You can apply icons to fields in your data. Icons cannot be mapped to line or shape data.

There are two ways to map icons to points:

  • Use same icon for all features
  • Set an icon from a field

Set icons to fields in your data

Customize icons for imported placemarks by a data field.

Follow steps 1-6 under Apply a style template.

  1. Select Set icon from field. Choose the field that you want to apply icon labels to.
  2. To group a range of numeric fields, choose a number of buckets. For each bucket defined, select an icon from the list.
  3. Create subfolders to display data elements for places based on color bucket.To show or hide the display of color groups, use the check box next to the folder. Note: Only one sub-folder can be assigned for either color or icon display.
  4. To modify an individual bucket icon element, click the bucket to adjust the value or value range. Note: To adjust the spread of the data to your preference, modify the settings for numeric buckets.
  5. Click OK to save the style template.

Map height values

After height values are set, points, lines, or shapes are moved from ground level to the height defined for each data element.

  • If you map height to lines or shapes, the values you define work in combination with the colors defined.
  • If you map height to point data, those points are moved using a single pixel colored line to connect the icon from its elevated position to the ground. You can use style settings to modify the width and color of lines.

Height values for text fields

If the field you choose to map contains text data, the first 8 unique fields are each defined in their own bucket. Only map height values to a field that has 8 or fewer unique values.

Height values for numeric fields

When you map height values to a numeric data field, you can choose from two mapping methods:

  • Continuous: Uses the minimum and maximum values of a field to determine a minimum and maximum height display for the entire set. Use this method for smaller data sets where individual distinctions between points or shapes are easily visualized.
  • Split into buckets: Creates up to 8 height groupings for your data. Use this method for large data sets where continuously mapped heights are not easily visualized in the 3D viewer.

Edit style settings of map points

To make data points and lines easier to see in the 3D viewer, you can edit the style settings for each point to modify the line thickness.

  1. Mouse over the point you want to modify. Then, select Properties (Windows, Linux) or Get Info (Mac).
  2. In the ‘Style, Color’ section, modify the point’s appearance as needed.
  3. Click OK.

Note: For large data sets, apply changes to entire folders or subfolders.

Choose field types

When using color, icon, or height mapping for specific fields in your data set, you can define a number of buckets to show different ranges of data. You can choose two basic types of fields from your data when mapping color, icon, or height values.

Text (string) fields

If a field type contains non-numeric data, Google Earth Pro maps the first 8 unique text fields to the style. If there are fewer than 8 values in your data, each unique value is paired to a different color, icon, or height. If there are more than 8 values, the first 8 unique values are mapped to a style, and the rest of the values are grouped together and mapped to a ninth style. For this reason, it typically is most useful to apply a style to text fields that contain small unique sets.

Numeric fields

Numeric data fields are automatically spread out across the number of buckets that you select and include a count of items in each bucket. If you increase or decrease the number of buckets, the application automatically redistributes the number of elements in each bucket.

Fix field formatting errors

If you are using a spreadsheet application to create your data, choose a numeric cell format. If you have numeric fields in your CSV saved from a spreadsheet, but the ‘Style Template’ wizard is not recognizing it as numeric, it might be due to incorrect formatting.

To verify whether the actual field is marked as text or numeric:

  1. Open the CSV file in a simple text editor and look at the field in question.
  2. If the field is enclosed in double quotation marks, then it has been defined as text — even if there are only numbers within the quotations.
  3. Remove the quotation marks manually from the file, or open your spreadsheet application and format the cells as numeric.
  4. Then, save the CSV data again.

How to import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel?

Google Earth is the best program if you want to find some direction that is not near you. This has an engine so powerful that even allows users to add their own GPS coordinates to map existing (you can even open or create maps with Google Earth ). Why it is that today learn to import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel.

This application takes years in use, each time getting better thanks to the power of Google. It is no exaggeration to say that perhaps one of the most capable tracking programs exists, if the goal is to find something that is on the surface of the planet. So logically there is to know more about it.

First step: Use Earthpoint

The first thing you have to keep in mind is that the process matters r coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel is very simple, however it can take some time, so will need patience to do so.

To start you need to go to the browser of your choice and find the website called Earthpoint Excel to kml .

You may also be interested in:

How to Change the Screen Timeout or Sleep Time in Windows (Examples)

This is to help you return your coordinates Excel on a compatible file for Google Earth . However, for the page to read it, your Excel data must be saved in a txt or cvs format also available within the document must be specific.

If you want to know how is this, you only have to download the example that comes on the same page which is called «ExcelToKmlDemo.zip».

Once your file match the sample, you just have to go back to the page and press on the «Choose File» , then choose your document and click « Open «.

Then give a «View in Google Earth» this automatically will turn the page and download your file in one of KML extension, which will keep the same name as the original.

Step Two: Import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel

Now that you’ve completed the previous step, you’re closer to import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel, so the following is go up to your implementation of Google (if not obviously you must download it).

When you get there, go to the top, and where the options hit « File «, and after that press « Open » in the you will drop down.

With this action a dialog box where you find your KML file (recommended store it in a single folder for it) will open.

A the find, select and dale click the « Open » that will make the program load your data (the amount), and now reflect on the map button.

This process will be over, so now you must give the option is called « Save «, so that your file remains in the directory and can open it easily whenever you want with just to click.

Import data directly from a GPS device

If you followed the previous steps to the letter, and should know how you can import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel. But in the case you have a GPS device , you should know that there is also a way to transfer data automatically.

For that, you have to connect the device to the computer where you have the program. Then within Google Earth, you have to go to «Tools» and from there has «GPS» , in that paragraph you will get a menu where you can choose compatible devices, if that is the case with yours, just select it and then import.

And ready, with that as the initial question is answered, so only you subtract get down to work and start importing files that you consider convenient in your program. Finally you should know that can also export a map of Google maps to PDF, Word or Excel and even capture or copy images satellite , so do not stay alone with this tutorial and looking for more.

How to map points from Excel in Google Earth Pro

Environmental professionals often use Google Earth as an inexpensive way to view and analyze data. In February, we wrote about the relaunch of Google Earth Pro as a FREE program available to anybody with a computer. One of the key advantages to using the professional version, is that Google Earth Pro can import huge tables and place your information on the globe. Did I mention that it was FREE?

In this post I will teach you how to take latitude and longitude data from within an excel table and turn it into a placemark within Google Earth Pro. In addition, I will teach you how to save your points as a KMZ file for use in Google Earth.

Create Google Earth placemark from Latitude/Longitude

1. Open the Excel table that contains the Latitude/Longitude data. Click here for more information on geographic coordinates.

Excel Table with Lat/Long Values

2. Click: File –> Save As –> Save as a ‘tab delimited’ Text file

Google Earth Pro

4. Click: File –> Import… –> Open the text file that was created in step 2.

5. The Data Import Wizard will guide you through the process. You should see a preview on the bottom that looks exactly like the Excel table from step 1. Click Next.

6. Tell Google Earth which columns in your table have latitude/longitude data. (Y = Latitude / X = Longitude)

7. Specify Field Types (this step is optional). Click Finish.

8. Click yes to create a style template. Choose an icon that will be used to display your placemark. Click OK.

9. In the Search menu on the left, find your file in the “Temporary Places” menu and click the empty box to make your placemarks visible.

You’re almost done!

10. In the “Temporary Places” menu, right click on your file and click on “Save Place As”. From here you can save your Google KMZ file. Once it is saved, you’re done!

How to display Excel data on Google Earth: Excel to KML

You can show spatially referenced data from Excel on Google Earth, and even a moving track of data over time. To do this you need to collect latitude and longitude readings from a GPS receiver alongside other measurement data such as depth or temperature.

For example, you might be measuring conditions on a moving train: any wheel slip in poor weather for example. With a Windmill system you could record co-ordinates from a GPS receiver, data from the wheel-slip detection mechanism, wheel speeds and other details.

Let’s assume that you’ve collected your data and it is in an Excel spreadsheet. You now need to create a ‘KML’ file from your data.

KML is a file format used to display geographic data in applications such as Google Earth or Google Maps. It is a text file based on the XML standard.

Before you can convert your Excel file to KML, you have to arrange your worksheet in a specific way. It should contain at least 3 columns: latitude, longitude and your data — for example depth. Change the title of the data column to Name.


The first column is depth data (m), collected by Windmill software reading sonar data.
Windmill grabbed the latitude and longitude data from a GPS receiver.

There are several utilities out there that will convert your Excel file to KML for you. I like Earth Point’s offering at http://www.earthpoint.us/ExcelToKml.aspx. Some others are listed below.To use the Earth Point tool:

  1. Look for the Choose File button on their web page, and browse to your Excel file.
  2. Click «View on Google Earth». The Earth Point utility will save your file as a KML file.
  3. Open Google Earth on your PC.
  4. From the Google Earth File menu, open the file you have just saved. Your data will be overlaid as labelled points.

Adding More Information to the Google Earth Overlay

You can add other columns to your spreadsheet, providing more details. For example, if you add a column titled «Description», whatever you type here will appear in Google Earth as a pop-up balloon.

You can also show a moving track of data over time.

Showing a Moving Track of Data in Google Earth

To show moving tracks on Google Earth you also need a column in Excel headed «TimeWhen». Windmill saves two columns of time data: one containing the date and one containing the time

You need to combine these into one in the format:
2012-03-22T07:30:15Z
Where
T separates the date from the time.
Z indicates that the time is UTC (Greenwich Mean Time)

If your time zone is different, instead of Z put — for example — +03:00. More details are at https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlreference#timestamp.

  1. Combine the contents of the date and time columns into 1 new column, eg column F.
    — In an empty column in Excel enter this formula :
    =TEXT(A2,»yyyy-mm-dd»)&»T»&TEXT(B2,»hh:mm:ss»)&»Z»
    This combines the date and time, adds a «T» between them and formats the result as text.
  2. Copy the formula down for each row.
  3. Select all the new date/time entries and copy them to the clipboard.
  4. Click cell A2, from the Edit menu select Paste Special.
  5. Paste as values.
  6. You can now delete the Time column and column F.
  7. Change the title of Column A from «Date» to «TimeWhen»
  8. Finally, add a new column with the title «LineStringColor».
    Fill the rows in this column with the name of a colour, for example Yellow.

Просматривайте координаты Google Планета Земля в Excel и конвертируйте их в UTM

У меня есть данные в Google Планета Земля, и я хочу визуализировать координаты в Excel. Как видите, это земля с семью вершинами и дом с четырьмя вершинами.

Сохраните данные Google Планета Земля.

Чтобы загрузить эти данные, щелкните правой кнопкой мыши «Мои места» и выберите «Сохранить место как. «.

Для файла, который имеет строки, точки и свойства, которые я изменил для значков, файл не будет сохранен как простой kml, а как Kmz.

Kmz — это набор сжатых файлов kml. Итак, самый простой способ распаковать его, как если бы это был файл .zip или .rar.

Как показано на следующем рисунке, мы можем не видеть расширение файла. Для этого мы должны сделать следующее:

1. Активирована опция просмотра расширения файла на вкладке «Просмотр» проводника.

2. Измените расширение с .kmz на .zip. Для этого делается мягкий щелчок по файлу, и данные после точки изменяются. Мы принимаем появившееся сообщение, в котором говорится, что мы меняем расширение файла и что это может сделать его непригодным для использования.

3. Файл несжатый. Щелкните правой кнопкой мыши и выберите «Извлечь в…». В нашем случае файл называется «Geofumed Classroom Land».

Как мы видим, папка была создана, и прямо внутри вы можете увидеть файл kml с именем «doc.kml» и папку с именем «files», которая содержит связанные данные, обычно изображения.

Открыть KML из Excel

Kml — это формат, популяризированный Google Планета Земля, который был до компании Keyhole, отсюда и название (Keyhole Markup Language), поэтому это файл со структурой XML (eXtensible Markup Language). Итак, будучи XML-файлом, он должен быть доступен для просмотра в Excel:

1. Мы изменили его расширение с .kml на .xml.

2. Открываем файл из Excel. В моем случае, когда я использую Excel 2015, я получаю сообщение, если я хочу видеть его как таблицу XML, как книгу только для чтения или если я хочу использовать панель источника XML. Выбираю первый вариант.

3. Мы ищем список географических координат.

4. Скопируем их в новый файл.

И вуаля, теперь у нас есть файл координат Google Earth в виде таблицы Excel. Начиная со строки 29, в столбце X появляются имена вершин, а координаты широты / долготы в столбце AH. Я скрыл несколько столбцов, поэтому вы можете видеть, что в строках 40 и 41 вы можете видеть два нарисованных мной многоугольника с их цепочкой координат.

Таким образом, при копировании столбцов X и столбца AH у вас есть объекты и координаты ваших точек Google Earth.

Мы надеемся, что приведенное выше поможет вам понять, как сохранить данные Google Earth в файле kmz, а также понять, как передать kmz-файл в kml, наконец, как просматривать координаты Google Earth с помощью Excel.

Заинтересованы в чем-то еще?

Преобразование данных из Google Планета Земля в UTM.

Теперь, если вы хотите преобразовать те географические координаты, которые у вас есть в виде десятичных степеней широты и долготы, в формат прогнозируемых координат UTM, вы можете использовать шаблон, который существует для этого.

UTM (Universal Traverso Mercator) — это система, которая делит земной шар в зонах 60 по 6 градусам каждый, преобразуется математически, чтобы напоминать сетку, спроецированную на эллипсоид; так же, как объясняется в этой статье, и в этом видео.

Как видите, туда вы копируете координаты, показанные выше. В результате у вас будут координаты X, Y, а также зона UTM, отмеченная в зеленом столбце, который в этом примере отображается в зоне 16.

Отправьте данные из Google Планета Земля в AutoCAD.

Чтобы отправить данные в AutoCAD, вам просто нужно активировать команду multipoint. Это на вкладке «Рисование», как показано на рисунке справа.

После активации команды «Несколько точек» скопируйте и вставьте данные из шаблона Excel из последнего столбца в командную строку AutoCAD.

Теперь ваши координаты нарисованы. Для их просмотра вы можете Zoom / All.

Вы можете приобрести шаблон с Paypal или кредитная карта. При совершении платежа вы получите электронное письмо со ссылкой для скачивания. Покупка шаблона дает вам право на получение поддержки по электронной почте, если у вас возникнут проблемы с шаблоном.

Узнайте, как сделать этот и другие шаблоны в Чит-курс Excel-CAD-GIS.

Давайте посмотрим на случай:

Я пошел на поле, чтобы построить свойство, как показано в следующей таблице, и я хочу визуализировать его в Google Earth, включая пару фотографий, которые я сделал

Гениальность шаблона — это только один:

  • Преобразует Координаты UTMдля Geographic в десятичном формате, так как это требует Google
  • Позволяет настроить имя файла назначения
  • Позволяет назвать слой kml
  • Перепишите существующий файл, даже если он уже сгенерирован
  • Он позволяет использовать html-теги в описании, такие как изображения, гиперссылки и т. Д.

преуспеть в google earth UTM

Шаблон готов для выбора сфероида, мы знаем, что для Google Планета Земля мы должны выбрать WGS84.

  • В первом столбце мы вводим данные, которые Google будет отображать как этикетка.
  • В следующих двух координатах UTM позаботимся о том, чтобы наша система была настроена на использование запятой и точки в качестве десятичного разделителя в качестве разделителя тысяч. Таким образом, координата типа 599.157,90 недопустима, ее следует записать как 599157.90.
  • В следующем столбце вводим зону. Просто поместив его в первую строку, остальные будут изменены. Хотя их можно изменить вручную, если данные были в пределах двух зон. Точно так же полушарие; В данном случае я использую данные из Боготы, поэтому я использую Зону 18 и Северное полушарие.
  • И, наконец, описание, которое мы увидим, когда щелкнем по точке в Google Планета Земля.

Как загрузить эти координаты в Google Maps, а затем загрузить их в Google Earth

[advanced_iframe src=»https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbxVLbJki_LyumjcW_IewXgNW4LZtvhQJn-ku2Y5ncCXLU_deWk/exec» width=»100%» height=»600″]

Шаг 1. Загрузите шаблон канала данных.  Чтобы использовать пример, который мы показали на изображениях, вы можете скачать этот шаблон.

Шаг 2. Загрузите шаблон. Выбрав шаблон с данными, система выдаст предупреждение, если были данные, которые невозможно проверить; В число этих проверок входят:

  • Если столбцы координат пусты
  • Если координаты имеют нечисловые поля
  • Если зоны не находятся между 1 и 60
  • Если в полушарии поля есть нечто иное, чем север или юг.

Данные описания поддерживают HTML-содержимое, подобное тому, которое показано в примере, который включает отображение изображения. Он по-прежнему будет поддерживать такие вещи, как ссылки на маршруты в Интернете или на локальный диск компьютера, видео или любой другой контент.

Шаг 3. Визуализируйте данные в таблице и на карте.

Сразу же данные загружены, в таблице будут показаны буквенно-цифровые данные и карта географического положения; Как видите, процесс загрузки включает преобразование этих координат в географический формат, как того требует Google Maps.

Как только значок будет отпущен, вы можете визуализировать точки, размещенные в Google Street View, и перемещаться по нему. Нажав на значки, вы можете увидеть детали.

Шаг 4. Перепроецируйте данные. По умолчанию загрузка данных осуществляется в WGS84, используемом Google. Но эта функция позволяет вам перейти на другую систему координат проекции и обновить карту. В качестве примера я переключаюсь на Clarke 1866 и вижу, что вершины проецируются на карту заново.

Здесь вы можете увидеть шаблон, работающий в видео.

Взаимодействие с другими людьми

Шаг 5. Загрузите карту Kml с помощью службы gTools.

Вы вводите код загрузки, и тогда у вас есть файл, который можно просмотреть в Google Планета Земля; Приложение показывает, где получить код загрузки, с помощью которого вы можете загрузить до 400 раз, без ограничения количества вершин при каждой загрузке с использованием gTools API. На карте просто показаны координаты с Gooogle Earth с активированными видами трехмерной модели.

Другой вариант: преобразовать координаты в файл kml с помощью макроса Excel

преуспеть в google earth UTM

После того, как табличные данные будут заполнены, справа появится имя файла kml и адрес, где он будет храниться. в этом случае он выглядит как C: Race 25 X.kml

  • В нижней строке мы записываем имя, которое слой будет иметь в файле kml, в этом случае:  25 X Race Survey
  • Результат таков: при прикосновении к точке можно отобразить описание последнего столбца Excel.
  • Наконец, как только мы будем готовы, мы нажмем зеленую кнопку, и файл должен быть сгенерирован.

Результат при открытии в Google Планета Земля следующий. Посмотрите на название слоя, как мы его называем, а там точки с его описанием; прикосновение к ним вызывает отображение деталей. Если объекты или этикетки Они очень большие, их можно настроить в Google Планета Земля, щелкнув правой кнопкой мыши на слое и выбрав свойства.

Как добавить фотографию в kml

Это просто, предположим, что в деталях банка уровня я хочу поместить изображение кадастровой таблички, а затем в ячейку, соответствующую описанию, я пишу:

преуспеть в google earth UTMЛимит собственности, Кадастровый уровень Банк

Точно так же, если в точке, которую я назвал Фото, я хочу разместить фотографию фасада дома, процедура похожа.

Предупреждения:

  • Если вам нужно вставить больше строк, вы делаете копии существующих, чтобы они шли по формуле.
  • Вам не нужно добавлять столбцы, если вы это сделаете, вы можете перестать работать.
  • Требуется, чтобы вы приняли выполнение макросов при открытии файла Excel
  • Если он отправляет вам сообщение об ошибке, возможно, каталог C: не имеет разрешения на запись, вы можете попробовать другую папку, например C: users downloads , пока папка существует.

utm to google earth Загрузки

Отсюда они могут скачать файл kml как и должно быть.

Для загрузки шаблона в Excel требуется символический вклад, который вы можете сделать с помощью Paypal или кредитная карта.

В случае, если у вас есть географические координаты типа Широта, Долгота, и вы хотите отправить в Google Earth, шаблон это.

Узнайте, как сделать этот и другие шаблоны в Чит-курс Excel-CAD-GIS.

Общие проблемы

Может случиться, что при использовании приложения может возникнуть один из следующих инцидентов:

Ошибка 75 — Путь к файлу.

Это происходит из-за того, что путь, который был определен для сохранения файла kml, недоступен или нет разрешений для этого действия.

В идеале вы должны поместить путь на диск D, который имеет меньше ограничений, чем диск C. Пример:

D:

Точки выходят на Северный полюс.

Обычно это происходит, потому что в наших окнах, как указано в инструкции для работы шаблона, региональная конфигурация должна быть установлена ​​в региональной панели:

  • -Point, для десятичного разделителя
  • -Coma, для разделителя тысяч
  • -Coma, для разделителя списков

Итак, такие данные, как: тысяча семьсот восемьдесят метров с двенадцатью сантиметрами должны рассматриваться как 1,780.12

Изображение показывает, как эта конфигурация сделана.

Это еще одно изображение, которое показывает конфигурацию на панели управления.

После внесения изменений файл будет сгенерирован заново, а затем появятся точки, где он соответствует в Google Планета Земля.

Google Earth is the best program if you want to find an address that is not near you. This has such a powerful engine that it even allows its users to add their own GPS coordinates to the existing map (you can even open or create maps with Google Earth). That is why Today you will learn to import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel.

This application has been in use for years, getting better and better thanks to the power of Google. It is no exaggeration to say that it may be one of the most capable tracing programs out there, if the goal is to find something found on the surface of the planet. So logically you have to know more about him.

Step One: Use EarthPoint

The first thing you have to keep in mind is that the process mattersr coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel, It is very simple, however it may take a little time, so you will need patience to achieve it.

To start you need to go to the browser of your choice and look for the website called EarthPoint from Excel at kml.

You may also be interested in:

This is the one that will help you to return your Excel coordinates in a compatible file for Google Earth. However, for the page to read it, your saved Excel data must be in a txt or cvs format, and its arrangement within the document must be a specific one.

If you want to know how this is, you just have to download the example that appears on the same page which is named «ExcelToKmlDemo.zip».

the earth from space

Once your file matches the sample, you just have to go back to the page and click on the option «Select File», then choose your document and click on «To open”.

Then hit «See in Google Earth», this will automatically cause the page to convert and download your file to a KML file extension, which will keep the same name as the original.

Second step: import coordinates and directions to Google Earth from Excel

Now that you have completed the previous step, you are closer to being able to import coordinates and addresses to Google Earth from Excel, so the next thing is to go to your Google application (if you do not have it, obviously you must download it).

When you are there, go to the top, and where the options are, click on «File«, And after that press»To open”In the drop-down that will appear.

With this action, a dialog box will open where you must search for your KML file (it is recommended to save it in a unique folder for it).

When you find it, select it and click on the button «To open”, This will cause the program to load your data (import it), and now reflect it on the map.

With this, the process will be over, so now you must give the option that is named «Keep«, So that your file remains in the directory and you can easily open it whenever you want, just by clicking.

Import data directly from a GPS device

If you followed the previous steps to the letter, you should already know how coordinates and addresses can be imported into Google Earth from Excel. But, in case you have any GPS deviceYou should know that there is also a way to transfer the data automatically.

google earth logo

For that, you have to connect said device to the computer where you have the program. Then within Google Earth, you have to go to «Tools», and from there has «GPS», in this section you will get a menu where you can choose compatible devices, if that is the case with yours, you just have to select it and then import.

And voila, with that the initial question is answered, so you only have to get down to work and start importing the files that you think are convenient in your program. Finally, you should know that you can also export a Google maps to PDF, Word or Excel and even capture or copy satellite images, so do not stay alone with this tutorial and search for more.

One of the features offered by Google Earth Plus is the ability to import data in spreadsheet format, specifically the CSV format: Comma-Separated Values a simple text format where data values are separated by commas, and each set of data is in a different line. But Google Earth Plus has a limit of 100 points for data import. When you consider that there are free options that will convert spreadsheet data into Google Earth’s KML format without this size limitation, then it’s not all that much of a “Plus”.

There are two different kinds of data that can be imported into Google Earth:

1. Data with geographic positions already determined. The data needs to be in latitude and longitude position in the WGS84 datum, Google Earth’s native coordinate system. I’ll be talking about coordinate converters at length in an upcoming series, but if your spreadsheet position data is in a different datum, CorpsCon is capable of reading it in and converting it to NAD83 in the US, which is almost identical to WGS84 (for worldwide conversions, try GeoTrans). Don’t know which datum your data is in, or is all this talk of datums going over your head? Don’t worry too much about it – plot the data, and see if the plotted positions are reasonably close to the features in Google Earth, within GE’s limits of error. If they are, and they probably will be, then your data is most likely in WGS84. Don’t forget that in Google Earth, positions have to be entered in decimal format, e.g. 30.5 degrees, not 30 degrees 30 minutes.

2. Data with street addresses. The Google Earth Plus spreadsheet import can convert these into geographical coordinates, a process known as “geocoding”, but there are some free options for this to be covered in a follow-up post.

Starting off with importing spreadsheets that already have geographic coordinates in them:

csv2kml (freeware; Windows only)

Note: I’ve received a report that the last version of this program doesn’t work correctly; if you have this problem, I’ve uploaded an older version here.

There are at least two other programs with this name, but this is the one to have. Converts all the data in .csv text format into a KML file. The file name needs to have .csv as the suffi; to confuse things, some programs want CSV files to have a .txt suffix, and you’ll have to rename the file extension with those. The first line of the .csv file should be the names of the data fields, separated by commas, then every successive line should have a set of data in an order that corresponds to the order of data fields in the first line. Here’s a screenshot:

You specify the data fields that correspond to latitude and longitude, elevations if it has that data in meters (otherwise it pins the point to the ground, which you can also require by using the checkbox), and the name you want the point to have when displayed in Google Earth. Latitude should be positive for north, negative for south; longitude is negative for West, positive for East. Checking a data field name under “Description” will include that data in the info that pops up when you click on a point. “Linestring” creates a path, while “Individual points” creates …. individual points.

Most spreadsheet programs will allow you to open, edit and save data in .csv format. Looking for an editor designed specifically to work with files in CSV format? Try CSVed or CommaWorks.

Excel2GoogleEarth (free)

If you have a copy of Microsoft Excel, you can use this free spreadsheet macro; it uses VBA, so macros have to be enabled, and OpenOffice won’t work. The biggest advantage of this spreadsheet is that if your data is in UTM coordinates, it can automatically be converted into the required latitude and longitude in the KML file. Open up the spreadsheet, click on the button that says “Create KML File”, and a window will open up. The first order of business is to select the column order in which the data appears in the spreadsheet. Click on the columns order arrow, and you’ll get a dropdown box showing you the only possible combinations of data columns:

And that’s the biggest limitation for Excel2GoogleEarth – the only sets of data that can be converted to KML are ones that conform to these sets of data columns. Got more data than can be fit into the maximum number and types of data columns available? Tough. Note also that “Easting” comes first in all of these; for geographic coordinates, this means that the longitude column should come first, before the latitude (“Northing”) column.

To select the data you want to convert into KML, first click on one of the Sheet tabs at the bottom, and then enter or copy the data into the spreadsheet, with the data in the order specified by the Columns Order dropdown selection. Then click on the horizontal bar at the right of the Data box:

A small window will appear, with the misleading title “Create A Google Earth File?”. What you actually do is go to the sheet with your data, select the spreadsheet cells you want to convert, then click on the button at the right in that small window. As in the window above, you will see the selected data cell description now in the Data box. Other options allow you to set the default symbol for display (though you can also set this with one of the data columns), use the Altitude to plot the data relative to the ground, include Description data in the data pane for the point in Google Earth, etc..

If you’re wedded to Excel, have to convert from UTM coordinates, or you need to specify different symbol types for every point, Excel2GoogleEarth might be a good choice. Otherwise, you’re probably better off using csv2kml.

GPS Visualizer (website; donations accepted)

The GPS Visualizer website can also accept text data, either in CSV or tab-delimited format, and convert it to a KML file. Be sure to read the tutorial on how to create and format text files for waypoints; a similar tutorial for tracks is “coming soon”.

Coming soon here: converting spreadsheet data in street address form to KML, aka “geocoding”.

Is there any way, using the scripting available to Excel 2007 to display a Google Earth map inside a sheet?

I’ve used Excel to house the data that I’ve then gone and generated a KML file to load into Google Earth, but now they want to see a pretty little cell with a client address mapped out in Excel directly to pretty up the presentation.

Microsoft does have an ActiveX webbrowser control that I’ve used in the past and as Panji explainshow to create a web browser control in excel

Panji Tengkorak
If what you’re looking for is to display the html table as it is without the need to calculate the value later you can use WebBrowser Control, do this to add the WebBrowser control on a Sheet:

  1. In Excel open the form in Design view.
  2. Right-click the menu bar and then click Control Toolbox.
  3. In the toolbox, click the More Controls tool. A menu appears that lists all the registered ActiveX controls in your system.
  4. On the menu of ActiveX controls, click Microsoft WebBrowser Control.
  5. On the sheet, click where you want to place the control.
  6. Move and size the control to the area you want to display

Then put this line of code anywhere you want it, it can be on a button or on your workbook event. In the following example I use button click:

Sub Button3_Click()
    ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.WebBrowser1.Navigate2 "http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=area+51&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=31.839416,60.732422&ie=UTF8&ll=37.237811,-115.807614&spn=0.015614,0.029655&t=h&z=15"
End Sub

It should be relatively simple to get coordinates from the spread sheet into the url.

Google maps will require some kind of browser control on which to render the markup coming from a maps query. There is no such control in Excel.

However it should still be possible to process the results from G maps and obtain any info like latitude/ longitude etc.

I was wrong, a quick search on Google brought a couple of links. Here is one:

Google Earth also has an ActiveX Control (called the GEPluginX Control) you can embed in an Excel worksheet, as long as you have the Google Earth browser plugin installed (this is a separate installation from the standalone Google Earth application).

The ActiveX control has an API you can use to navigate the 3D view to different places (I believe you can load a KML file and view placemarks within that file)…
