KML Circle Generator
KML Circle Generator is a small project I built in 2014. It's a simple service that generate circles in KML files. Generated KML files can be used in Google Earth.
This project was deployed to Heroku and keeps running since then. I almost forgot this project until someone asked a question about the generation algorithm of circles. I found the source code of this project in my old Bitbucket account and pushed it to GitHub.
This project was created using Play framework. I made some changes to fix this project.
- Google Maps requires an API key, so I switched to OpenStreetMap with Leaflet.
- Google Earth cannot be embedded in the browser, so I removed the preview section.
- There is an error when deploying to Heroku with CoffeeScript, so I changed to JavaScript.
- Upgraded to latest Heroku stack 20.
After downloading a KML file from the service, this KML file can be added to Google Earth. See the screenshot below.
