GE-Graph

GE-Graph is a small Windows application designed specifically for helping you generate graphs from KML files created via Google Earth.

The GUI looks crowded so you may need extra time in order to decode the program’s features. There’s support for a help manual that you can access in case you have some questions regarding the program’s capabilities.

All configuration parameters are included in a single window. In case you spend a lot of time setting up graph data, the program lets you save the current configuration to a file on your computer so you can easily import it in your future projects.

GE-Graph gives you the option to choose between a flat or 3D graph, pick the polygon type, and opt for an automatic size or manually specify the height and choose the unit of measurement. Graphs can be created with geometrical shapes (circles, squares, and triangles).

You are allowed to choose the color scale, enter the minimum and maximum values for color scale, show or hide the scale in Google Earth, enable the automatic scale mode, as well as make grid lines and select the preferred color of the lines.

The application helps you alter the label content (name, value, or name and value), transform values to square root, draw bars with any rectangular polygon form, reorder coordinates sequence to show fill colors, sort and filter placemark data (coordinates, names and values), and paste clipboard information right in the main panel.

When it comes to exporting options, you are given the freedom to save data to plain text file format and export the grid information to Excel.

All things considered, GE-Graph comes with a set of handy features for helping you generate graphs from user-defined KML files. On the downside, the GUI cannot be described as highly intuitive. It hasn’t been updated for a while, so several compatibility issues may appear especially if you deploy it on newer operating systems.
