"Network Link" - Stage 12 Live!!

07/13/05 11:08 AM

View in Google Earth View in Google Maps (327 downloads)

This is a dynamic follow of the Tour de France Stage 12

That network link did not leave me in peace...

So i checked how to get the live position information from the web to follow the Tour de France.

The only information you get is the distance from start.
So i made a table with the track coordinates and computed the distance.
Then i can reffer to the coordinates of the track.

Quick and dirty i did it in Excel

I have an external data link to
http://www.letour.fr/2005/TDF/LIVE/fr/1100/dprofil.html

From there i extract the distance, generate the KML file with the coordinates from the table and then wait 15 seconds.

Google Earth can then update the network link

and you see the little red car (There is no Bike) moving along the track.

All is packed in the excel table

at first run it will generate a file "le_Tour_live.kml" you need to set up the correct network link

Then it generates the file "letourcurrent.kml" with the current position every 15 seconds.

You need to stay with excel running all the time in the background, guess why!

Known Problems:

1) I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WORKS with you

2) sometime Google Earth will loose the network link because i need to delete the file before writing the new version.

Have fun.
