The basic mashup: My Map with embedded iFrame. • Prerequisites • Google account. • Place to map. • Basic webpage skills (optional)
Export shp to KML • http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=14273
Adding KMLs to my Maps • 1) put the KML on a website server. Double check by putting the address in your browser - it works if browing to the address brings up google earth or download the file. IE www.website.org/test.kml • In My Maps, enter the web address of the kml in the search box in my maps. This should pull up the KML file on the mymaps. • Try this one: http://clear.uconn.edu/geospatial/raggedrock/KMZs/raggedrock.kml
