              Viewing WA TERS Data with
              Google Earth
                         Coming Summer 2009!
 What is it?
 Keyhole Markup Language (KML) files
 providing users with easy access to
 geospatial WATERS data using Google
 Earth (GE). The Office of Water will
 release both an image- and a vector-
 based version of the WATERS KML
 file. The image version will  utilize OGC
 compliant map services to quickly
 display WATERS features in GE. The
 vector version will consume live KML
 feeds which provide real-time access to
 analysis tools and additional
 information about specific WATERS
 features.
