James Cook’s Voyage (Google Maps)

Just trying to test something here.

I have collected a massive amount of notes which I have kept on my PC on Google Earth. I think it is really useful to map events out (spatially) and also make timelines (temporally).

I am trying to find a way to present what I have found.

Anyway – here it goes;

If you click on the above, hopefully you will see a map of Cook’s voyage with notes.

This is only a small part of the notes that I have, there is a limit of objects that can be imported onto these maps, so I started only with a folder of James Cook first voyage notes. I might add more maps later on.

Note 1: Also – if anyone tries this link – can you let me know in the comments – what language do the menus come up in? I’ve done it on my German language PC, and uploaded it in Germany with a German google account – so I don’t know what language it will come up with if anyone else opens it up. Thanks.

** Note 2: So I decided to share a larger kmz file. You need to install Google Earth on your computer first (not Google MAPS – but Google EARTH), download and save this kmz file, then open it in Google Earth. It has way more stuff in it than just the Cook Voyage. This is a work in progress that I haven’t finished yet. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1P0EIBfxwocM8ZkKo7tYRDFFlft84OvZe/view?usp=sharing
