Could someone remind me how to do this?

(i.e. importing a kml of the NGS bm's)

I know how to download the datasheets, but then you......?

I also remember something about the geocacher site: http://benchmarks.scaredycatfilms.com/
I went there and can view them easily, but I want to put them in GE.

Can you remember how you did it?

Thanks,

Steve

NGS benchmarks into Google Earth...Correction

DS World

http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/PC_PROD/PARTNERS/index.shtml

The DSWORLD program sits on top of Google earth and displays NGS points in Google Earth. You can pick on any given point and retrieve the data sheet. A great reconnaissance tool! Once you have searched by county, google puts the display on a layer that you can turn on or off.
