Hi all,

This is a test of a direct email sent to locate at orcasphere.net
Any of you should be able to send such notes without moderation if you so 
desire.  Ideally, I think the SPOT and other GPS data need to be uploaded 
directly to a centralized on-line database with as much metadata as 
possible.  Authorized users should be able to query the database in 
near-real time and have the output tabulated for analysis and/or mapped.

But in the interim and as an experiment, here is a link to the .kml file 
that SPOT will spit out directly through a manual download of 
near-realtime data:

http://beamreach.org/maps/spot/ayres/080726_ayres.kml

If you open that .kml file in google earth, or just paste the URL into the 
"search" bar at http://maps.google.com, you can see where Katherine was 
with the SRKWs today.

Best regards,
Scott
