Great example. Just wanted to comment that some data visualization snobs would point out the similarity between this and the pies-on-map graphic that VDQI.

But, how can we do this but get the stuff to load automatically... I would like to see this created, but the KML file come from autoprocessing the components of an SQL database. HAve you ever seen something like that?Domhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05058027582990678467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741970181714760187.post-49679018026225401302008-12-28T17:14:00.000Z2008-12-28T17:14:00.000ZHi<BR/>The problem is with labels in google chart URLs, for some reason the vertical bar separator makes the URL unusable. I've just tried your KMZ file with GE 4.3.7284.3916 - I have proper images for placemarks, but in the description only gray rectangles remain. If I remove labeling (legeng) from URL to google charts the image appears. Any ideas how to solve it?Maciej Witkowiaknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741970181714760187.post-11274553334480088452008-12-13T05:12:00.000Z2008-12-13T05:12:00.000ZHi veerugadde,<BR/><BR/>If you download the KMZ file in this blog post, you can right-click on an element in the places panel in Google Earth, select 'copy' and paste the code into a text editor. You'll then see how the chart images are referenced in KML.<BR/><BR/>To generate charts on the server you could use a graphics library like gd (complicated), or generate URLs for the Google Chart API (not so complicated). Details are explained in the Thematic Mapping Engine documentation (click on Downloads above).Bjørn Sandvikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16080335362672606377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741970181714760187.post-71643661536050572632008-12-12T16:30:00.000Z2008-12-12T16:30:00.000ZHello<BR/><BR/> I was trying to use google charts api with Gearth but when its not showing any charts.I included the chart url in description tag and cannot see any output.Is there any specific way i need to follow while writing kml or creating charts.Could you also please suggest me how to make charts on the fly(i.e server side) <BR/><BR/>Thank you,veerugaddehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13108147391566644364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741970181714760187.post-31266464723905736852008-10-21T13:03:00.000+01:002008-10-21T13:03:00.000+01:00Is there any chance of seeing the code behind this? The KMZ file doesn't seem to show anything nice in my texteditor, I'm presuming a KML file would provide human-readable output...<BR/><BR/>MMark Porterhttp://www.markporter.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741970181714760187.post-2250016553524017942008-04-30T18:01:00.000+01:002008-04-30T18:01:00.000+01:00Great job and great blog !Jean-Noël Anderruthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02525864102838110353noreply@blogger.com
