Title: autocharts import kml
Post by: D S on April 28, 2014, 12:12:20 PM

i have a kml of my local shoreline i want to import as the zerolines shoreline is not that accurate and cuts off some of my data
but i am unable to import kml to autocharts......... it says no data found...
i checked in google earth and it diplays fine... any suggestions?
I will post pics of cut off data from autocharts later today
PS the list of lakes is incredible (ie) in Saskatchewan Canada i am able to find every lake i have fished even tiny trout lakes from hanson lake road
any help would be appreciated

I had to add a couple of islands that did not show in Autochart.  I created a separate Google Earth path for each island.  I then save each path as a .kml file.  Autochart had no problem importing the saved .kml files. 

Not sure why you're having an issue.
