---+ KML Special Session at the [[IVOA.InterOpMay2008][May 2008 Interop Meeting]]


KML is the language used for adding content to Google Sky -- although most applications are rather for Google Earth. The language has been controlled by Google for a long time, but is now controlled by the Open Geospatial Consortium, who have recently released KML version 2.2.

The IVOA Exec has decided that astronomers as well as geographers have an interest in KML, and our session at the Interop will be a discussion of what that interest is, as well as some demonstrations and presentations of what astronomers have done with KML and Google Sky.
