Today marks a special event on the web.
According to the Google Blog, the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) has today accepted KML 2.2 file format as an official OGC Standard. KML began life in Google Earth as a way to save custom map features and developed into a sophisticated format that is used by a large number of widely used mapping platforms.
Google handed KML 2.2 over to the OGC in a bid to provide a higher level of accessibility to geographic-based web content. Bravo Google!

Bravo Sitepronews!
really good post
Many thanks!
This is great news. It sounds like they’ve dropped their GML format completely. Any news on whether they’re going to integrate KML standards into RSS? i.e. a GeoRSS killer?
Cheers, great find!
