Campaign tracker 2008-2012 -- KML file and instructions for updating. (by Joe Murphy)

campaign-tracker-how-to-update

How to update the 2012 campaign visit tracker
The candidate tracker map is made up of three components
Parent file: DenverPost/media/maps/kml/visits-vs-wins-colorado-2008-2012.kml
2008 results: DenverPost/media/maps/kml/2008-election-results.kml
2012 visits: DenverPost/media/maps/kml/campaigning-in-colorado-07102012 
To update the candidate tracker map that you see on the Obama and Romney pages, you only need to update one file. You can download the most recent version of the file from the FTP server and save it on your desktop: Denver Post/media/maps/kml/campaigning-in-colorado-07102012.kml (July 10, 2012 was the creation date. Do not change this in the file name unless you change it in the parent KML file.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To add a new point to the map, you need to add a "placemark" to the KML file. Every placemark ends in <placemark> and ends in </placemark>. For your convenience, I've put the visits in chronological order. Anything in green below must be changed.
For Romney visits, use the one with #RomneyVisit as the style:

<styleUrl>#RomneyVisit</styleUrl>

----------------------------------------------------------------

In order to get the proper coordinates for the event location, simply go to http://maps.google.com and find the location. Right click on it and select "Get Directions to Here". Google will compute coordinates. If Google computes 38.250084,-104.642561 as the coordinates, you will need to reverse those in the KML file...So, you would type them as -104.642561,38.250084.

Replace the file with the updated one and you've successfully updated the candidate tracker map.
