Hi,

was anyone able to get a    esri.arcgis.gmaps.DynamicMapServiceLayer  running on the GoogleMaps-API + Google-Earth-Plugin, e.g. on a maptype with G_SATELLITE_3D_MAP) ?

It works fine with KML but refuses to display my shapefiles.
😞

esri.arcgis.gmaps.DynamicMapServiceLayer is part of the esri extensions for google maps, I believe (but not completely sure) it can't run on google earth

Why don't you enable the kml capabilities on the mapservice you are using to publish your spatial data?
In this way you could be able to display your data with a request to the kml url

Hmmm...that´s what I thought.

Hmm...would the data attached to the mapservice be still available then? I have a lot of columns I wanted to display using the google chart-api. I know that I have "clicked" KML when I created my Mapservice, so it should have this capability, but how can I make use of this "capability" ?  I did not find a way yet.

You can consume a KML service as follows, for example:

http://servername/arcgis/services/foldername(if exists)/service_name/MapServer/KmlServer?Composite=true&LayerIDs=0

You can read some documentation here

Hi
on ArcGIS Server you can publish you map service like a KML link (if are abilitates capabilites).
This link will be load on ArcGIS Explorer (Add Content -> KML network links) and also on Google Earth.

If you want display data on 3D for my experience that's the quikly way
