Could we be able to download this as a Google Earth Layer? You'd just need to shove it into KML format. See this for cool examples!

Yes, this would be possible. My original data for colorado was from a Google Earth file. When I have time, I will make an output for KML format.

Re: First Teams Google Map

Very nicely done. It would be cool to have a different color pin for each of the regionals as well or possibly a different map and then have driving directions to each regional, that would be a pretty nice resource as well.

Re: First Teams Google Map

Attached to this post is a Google Earth map placemark file (zipped because CD does not support .kmz) of all FIRST Competitions for 2006. The markers are placed directly on the competition arena in all cases, and have the addresses in their descriptions. I will soon add this information to the online map application, and make smaller markers for the online map if I have time.

Re: First Teams Google Map

I finally got around to implementing the regionals points. These should be exactly placed on each competition venue, if they are not contact me and I can correct it. The competition or team points can also be hidden separately.

I am working on an option to display only the teams attending a selected regional (to see where other teams are from). Those who have entered team records recently have not yet been added, but will be in the next couple of days.

Also, this map is slow to display in IE now, due to the amount of markers, so wait for the initial load (the browser is not locked up).

Re: First Teams Google Map

I always have some qualms about reviving an old thread but I decied this is a worthy cause.

It really would be great if EVRY team who reads this posts their location!

I was looking for some local teams to scrimmage against so I head over to the handy dandy google map! Well... there is only one team listed anywhere close to me! I know their are others! Come on guys, this is a little bit of time out of your day that puts a LOT of time back into everyone else's!

Thanks for thinking that this was actually a worthwhile effort.

I just got around to adding a bunch more teams that had submitted, now the list is up to 172 teams. I have not had any more time to work on the site, but after the build season, I will try to get the show teams going to regionals mode working (all the info is in there, it just needs implementation) and fix bugs like the strange box display of regional addresses.

Thanks to everyone for their support, this can become a great resource if most teams are availible. If you know of teams around you and have time, enter them as well, it will only help others.
