How do you get these cool maps?
Everyone always seems to be posting these google earth maps with their flight path displayed in 3d.
I managed to get a KMZ file from ardupilot and map it on google earth, but I cannot get it to display in 3d. It just shows a line.
I don't see any documentation on this. I've been googling it for ages now.

Are you using Planner's built in converter to KML?

No, I found these KMZ files in the log directory.
That looks like its for telemetry logs (don't have telemetry), but I'll play with it.

Arduplane and I don't quite recall.
I was able to get the 3d view I was looking for in Earth by changing some settings (the altitudes were AGL, not MSL, so I had to adjust them by the ground elevation.)

they are using external image processor like hyper3d to parse to 3d like what they mentioned in the thread mapping with ardupilot
