Spatial Mapping on the Globe
Fast representing GIS analysis results using no cost internet tools

The extraordinal power of the tool in visualizing spatial data on the
globe is not only in being able to deliver custom dynamic view-specific
and time-specific content to individual GE client explorers, but
also in the fact that researchers can individually combine these layers
and communicate them via internet to support fast decision making.
Layers such as watersheds (Fig.1) geology (Fig.2), hydrogeology,
Corine Land Cover etc. were produced externally in ArcGIS
before converting with special extension to the KML (Keyhole
Mark up Language) GE format. Uploading these KMLs on online
web-servers, these “Network Links” allow individuals, researchers,
and other organizations to easily publish/preview dynamic geospatial
data layers and have them seamlessly integrated into the unified GE
environment .

The TRABOREMA EU-Project is focused partly on investigation
of quantitative spatial data of environment to define policies
for sustainable regional trans-boundary development. For integrated
trans-boundary water management in the cross border
region of Albania, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia
(FYROM) and Greece (Western Balkans), the freely available
visualizing tool Google Earth® (GE) is used - as an important
supplement to expensive GIS systems for networking purposes.
It provides multimedia 2D/3D modeling features and monitoring
measurements of the Prespas eco-system. Therefore the
wide used GE Pro was selected for fast representing analysis
results for the research community and stakeholders of the
region.
