I can download the logs from the APM1 but I am trying to figure out how to get it to overlay in the google maps. I have been trying and keep going through the wiki with no luck. Anybody that can would be greatly appriciated.

Hello,
I am facing the same issue that BertzillAvionics was facing.
I tried the solution that is provided by Bruce but it is not working for me. I am also getting the dots. After trying bruce's solution, I am getting the lines but everything of same color. I want everything, all the different modes in different colors. Also, I want to know how to read the data provided in it.
I mean, I want to check the altitude at a particular point but it is not showing me that or may be I am not able to find it.
What are all the things that I want to check are,
1) Roll at a particular point
2) Pitch angle at a particular point
3) Altitude at a particular point
4) Speed at a particular point (Its OK if I get the ground speed and not the airspeed)
At least I want these things with different color codes for different modes.
How can I get this? Can anyone please help me with this?
Thank you in advance.
fyi
heres the link to google earth

The two great geeks of my geek show did this just a while ago in their episode 79 (Episode 79 - APM Data Logging).

I tried to use Google Maps too but was unsuccessful. Instead of it install Google Earth so the plugin comes ready to use. All you have to do is go to your logs folder and double click on any .kmz file. It should open your logged path on the map.
