BackgroundBackground

• Google Earth (GE) is a world map program.

• GE uses Keyhole Markup Language (KML) to allows for tagging Sites Of Interests.

• GE utilizes KMLs to display satellite imagery from NASA.

• GE maintains a community Web Server.

• Raytheon has their own Web Server with imagery.

The SituationThe Situation

Raytheon would like to share imagery of sites of interests from a private web server through Google Earth.



8 of 19

RequirementsRequirements

The basic requirements are:

1. Setup and access a web server with a database 1.1 Allow users to log into using a remote PC1.2 PC must contains an installed working copy of Google Earth

2. The web server includes user authentication2.1 A method of checking the user's login name and password2.2 Allowing new users to create a new account.

3. Database data structure includes:3.1 User’s full name3.2 Username, and MD5 encrypted password3.3 Email address3.4 Per user Sites of Interests (SOI) list with public and private flags

Requirements (continued) Requirements (continued)

The Second Phase requirements are:

4. After successful login, display Google Earth (GE), pass control GE

5. Design a secondary database for structure of KML’s5.1 Use Google Earth’s data structure for KML’s

6. Link the two data structures. 6.1 Link must by User’s profile.6.2 Only link KMLs that belong to the login user.6.3 Link global KMLs

7. If Sites Of Interest (SOI) exist, load into Google Earth

8. Add the ability to add, update, delete, and save SOI

9. Allow for the ability to share Public or Private KMLs

Design / SpecificationDesign / Specification

• Front-end design– Simple welcome screen– Allows user to login or register– Validates on invalid input

11 of 19




• Front-end design (continued)

– Registered user’s screen– Loads Google Earth ActiveX plugin– Provides easy access to options

• Get the Google Earth Airlines plugin• Edit/Add/Delete sites of interests (SOI’s)• Modify profile• View/Edit/Delete all users (administrators

only)• Logout

– User interface will be driven by Web 2.0 technologies

• The Back-end design

1. Linux web server2. CakePHP Framework-specific tables

• Authentication• User Base access control

3. mySQL database USER table profile

• Username• MD5 encrypted password• First and last name• Email address

15 of 19




• The Back-end design4. Google Earth Airlines open source plug-in5. KMLs’ table holds KML data structure

• KML name• Longitude• Latitude• Altitude• Description• Logic public/private

6. CakePHP Framework-specific tables• Authentication

7. User Base access control 8. Add, update, delete, and save 9. KML table holds user’s KML information

• Sharing information (public/private data)

AnalysisAnalysis

• Comparison of solutions

– Google Earth Enterprise edition from Google, Inc.• Shows Google Earth KML files in browser• Uses the Google Maps API and interface• Does not utilize full power of Google Earth• Cost a lot of money!

– Our solution is unique• Utilizes the power of Google Earth• Based on free and open-source code and frameworks

– GoogleAirlines Plugin– CakePHP framework– mySQL database– Web 2.0 (AJAX)

• Able to customize solution for future needs easily
