KML support

KML is a file format used to display geographic data in an Earth browser such as Google Earth. KML uses a tag-based structure with nested elements and attributes and is based on the XML standard.  MapIt can display KML-data saved in the issue attachments, Mapit will try to parse attachments with .kml file ending. An option in the issue pop-up toggles the display of KML-files. 


Activation

Make sure KML support has been activated for Mapit. Please contact the JIRA Administrator for this purpose.
