I am attempting to convert a georeferenced jpeg image into a KML in order to view in Google Earth. When I perform this conversion using the default settings, the output is a tiny (<100 KB) file that will open in GE, but is extremely pixelated and missing information.
The optional settings under "OUTPUT IMAGE PROPERTIES" include two ambiguous parameters called: "Size of returned image (pixels)", and "DPI of output image".
What exactly does "Size of returned image (pixels)" mean? The help documentation describes it as defining the "vertical and horizontal resolution of any rasters in the KML document". So, if the image being converted is 10800 x 14840 then what in the world should the size be set at? I have tried using units with that order of magnitude and the result will not open in GE.
Does "DPI of output image" somehow imply resolution? The help documentation says that it defines "the device resolution for any rasters in the KML document". It seems that that was addressed in the previous field. Changing this value has no appreciable effect on the output, as far as I can tell.
This seems like a much simpler process that it has proven to be. Any help would be appreciated.
