Agricultural census 'Mash-ups' using Keyhole Mark-up Language (KML) format data

EDINA agcensus data can now be downloaded in OGC Standard KML.

KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is a file format that uses XML-based language to manage geographic information.

Originally, KML was used to display data in Google Earth and Google Maps but with the adoption by the OGC, KML files will become a standard for managing spatial data across a variety of mapping applications.

Note: EDINA agcensus terms and conditions apply. Data should not be published nor made available in a public webspace.
