Can't export to KML from Google Maps? Here's a workaround.: "
As part of the recent Google Maps redesign, the ability to export your map to KML was mistakenly removed. According to a post in the Google Maps support forum, the feature will be added back in to Google Maps as soon as possible. In the meantime, here's a workaround for you:
1 -- Set the map the way you'd like it.
2 -- Click the 'link' icon in the top right corner.
3 -- Copy the link below the 'Paste link in email or IM'.
4 -- Paste the address into your address bar and then add &output=kml to the end of it.
The image below helps explain how steps #2 and #3 work:
No timeframe was given for the return of the KML link, but I expect they'll fix it fairly soon. Let us know if you have any trouble getting this workaround to work for you.
