Hi,
We have a script that generates a KML file with a placemark that only have an <address></address> tag (no coordinates). When added in Google Earth EC :
- The address is geolocated and a pin is added on the globe
- The user can zoom to it with a double-click
Here is a sample code :
----------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:gx="http://www.google.com/kml/ext/2.2">
<Placemark>
<name>Esri Headquarters</name>
<description>No coordinates are used. Only an address tag.</description>
<address>380 New York Street, Redlands, California, 92373, USA</address>
</Placemark>
</kml>
----------------------------
And the result in Google Earth EC :
The OGC KML 2.3 standard states this about the <address> tag :
It would be great if ArcGIS Earth could also make use of the KML <address> tag.
Thank you !
