A few months ago we were looking for an application that would generate contours in Google Earth/Maps (not image tiles that would be difficult to manage, but true KML polygons that would scale easily).
The goal was simple: Find an application that took a collection of map points and easily generated contours. We found nothing that would meet our needs for under $30,000!!! So we created our own application: "Map Contours". If you ever wanted to do contouring in KML for Google Earth/Maps, "Map Contours" is a very cool application: http://www.mapcontours.com/mapcontours/displayHome.do?ref=1002 There is both an online service where you can upload an XML data file and have a KML contour file returned, and a Java "mapcontours.jar" file which can be included in any J2EE application. P.S. We know this is a shameless plug for a product that is not free; however, the cost is minimal and the benefits are great. P.P.S. Why isn't "Map Contours" free? Times are tough.
