Google earth works fine... The APRS application just needs to provide a KML web
server that outputs the appropriate information when queried. That also allows
multiple users to have access to the same view, controlled from a central source.
The issue of what to do when you don't have an internet connection, is getting
to be a smaller issue. My verizon USB modem works amazingly well. With D-Star
data radios, there are possibilities there too.
