Team 159 had a map up on their website a while ago where teams could add themselves, it was a google map/google earth type thing, it eas really cool as i remember it, maybe we could find taht link,

only thing, it doesn't show that shaded region like that other FIRST map did

but it does show regional events in blue, teams in red, and if im correct off season events or sponcers in yellow?

I was thinking of Regional Chairman's, because I can look up all the teams for Championship CA.

Could you add a table for dormant or extinct teams? I think that could be interesting historical information to see mapped out.

Added. Good idea!

I found this old thread from 05 if you want to compare the maps....

You're planning to make a global map of FIRST teams, right? If so, when are we expecting to see it?

I plan on making it in stages. First I will make one for the teams attending the VCU Regional. Then I hope to make one for Israel, Brazil, and Canada (because they have fewer teams than the US). Hopefully by then many more teams would have been added and I can make a global map.

Thanks to everyone who has added teams!!

I challenge everyone else to add your team plus a couple teams in your area.

Fine by me.

Someone should make a kml file for google earth that uses this table to plot the location of all the teams

[Rob2713g]

Does anyone know the location of team 1172? I have not been able to find their website, school name, or address. They competed in the VCU Regional. Thanks.

Hello...

1172 should be from Richmond. The First site lists teams from Va. (under "what teams are from this state "in the "whats going on in my area " link)and they are listed as from Richmond.

Has anyone build a KML network link to the FIRSTwiki table?
