Hi everybody,

functions like union, difference or spatial buffers on polygons resp.

Scale dependent loading of placemarks from mySQL database

john.p.carpen...@gmail.com (JPC) — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:52:31 UT

I'm trying to load ~1000 placemarks from a mySQL database and it is

Can anyone suggest an easy way to load, maybe half of them when the

Currently I'm using the instructions from this tutorial (http://
