I'm trying to produce a map which shows the location of safety-cameras in a number of villages in Kent. Is there a product I can buy that I can add into Google Earth as an overlay which will show the locations of all of the cameras in the UK? In theory I could just print off the relevant view of the country.

Thanks

Well you could subscribe to our database and then import that into Google Earth?

What's the purpose if you don't mind me asking?

A relative has received a court summons regarding an alleged speeding offense - I want to show that the original complaint was excessively vague and incorrect on factual grounds in order to help her dispute this complaint.

I already subscribe to PocketGPSWord in order to get the TomTom compatible database. Is there another version of the database which works with Google Earth?

Thanks

You can use POIedit to convert a POI file or there are many other utilities that will allow the import of our .csv file version into Google Earth.

Have a look at using Tire its a free application that can accept ov2 files and put them straight into Google Earth, only keep the files local on your PC though as we wouldn't want the database displayed for everyone to see - Mike

Thanks, the idea is to create printed maps of the relevant areas with the locations and distances between the relevant cameras noted. None of these maps will be published.
