does it update frequently?

#4 Updated by Phil Wyatt almost 6 years ago

Generally whilst fires are underway its likely to refresh every 4 - 6 hours (depending on the number of fires). Other layers within the attached file (from which I got the URL) are updated more frequently

#5 Updated by Giovanni Manghi almost 6 years ago

Does it works as expected on 2.18?

#6 Updated by Phil Wyatt almost 6 years ago

I would need to check again but my suspicion is NO.

Drag and drop of the gearth.kml doesnt work however I understand that is because of the network connections.

Today will be a good day to watch this URL - fires everywhere and changes will be made regularly
