My first KML Map

Hello,

So I made my first KML file for Interstate 84 in Idaho, could someone tell me if I did it correctly (if the line is thick enough, precise enough etc.) Thewombatguru (talk) 10:16, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Looks pretty good! I'd say that the frequency of points (generalization in GIS-speak) is set low which is fine here since it's a divided highway, just make sure it's a little more frequent when you do narrower roads so that you don't have the line cutting corners through cliffs, etc. Thanks in advance for your help in contributing to the highway articles these important files! —Mr. Matté (/Contrib) 13:56, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
Ok, I'll zoom in a bit more at the next KML Map. Thewombatguru (talk) 14:10, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
Is there also a place where I have to report that I made a KML map? Because I made one for Interstate 84 in Oregon. Thewombatguru (talk) 23:19, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
No, because {{USRD}} on the talk page will automatically detect the presence of the KML, unless |needs-KML=no is set. If the banner doesn't automatically update, try purging or performing a null edit on the talk page to force it to update. That will update the categories. Imzadi 1979 → 01:13, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
