![]() Although the 300km towering line from Milan to San Remo, home of his 2017 victory, also stands out pretty clearly: Multiple Tour de France routes are dramatically overshadowed by training rides at his home in the South of France, Mallorca, Calpe and Canary Islands in the distance. A few examples… The WorldTour ProfessionalĪ big thanks to Michał Kwiatowski for letting me share images of his data (it isn’t public in VeloViewer): Uncheck the box to get an KML export with towers represented 1 to 1 as sown in this post.Īn interesting exercise is visiting the Activities pages of people in the main VeloViewer leaderboards who have their VeloViewer data set to public and downloading/viewing their 3D KML files. I tried logarithms first but they squashed the tall towers far too much. By default the KML file will flatten the towers by square-rooting the visit count which seems to result in a better view of the data. ![]() each tile visit results in the addition of a full height tile cube being stacked each time) as shown on the examples on this page. Typically people have a really high concentration of visits to tiles in the immediate vicinity to where they live resulting in huge towers if the 3D KML file is viewed 1 to 1 (i.e. UPDATE: New “Flatten spikes” option added. ![]() Then open up Google Earth Pro (the desktop version is best, and free, but also works in the mobile or web version) and open the KML file. Press that button and you’ll get a (possibly quite large) KML file. Make sure the Map is turned on along with either Max Square or Max Cluster and then click the map settings button: It uses a new export button found on your Activities page. ![]() I’ve wanted to produce this view of VeloViewer Explorer Tiles since I first came up with the idea back in 2015 and can only put my lack of action down to being too busy with the professional teams these last few years! Simple idea though: provide a KML output that can be viewed in Google Earth shows a tower for each ticked Explorer Tile with the height representing the number of times the tile has been visited on your travels.
