Hello,


it really depend in which format are data provided. As I see on mentioned page, for example here: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/kml.php , data are available as KML files.


Quick test of "Colored by Age" and it works quite well. Suggest to test ;) (use mapItems system: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:items )

oh... very good, this is a big gift for me. Thank you very much.

However I found also a little issue, could you please upgrade them ?

Locus always show all group of points on map. Even I have hide some point. You can test them by a Static Feeds.

Thank you very much.

Especially I must speak thanks to you, because now I known KML can support online data from you.

Hi, hmm as I test it, there seems to be a lot more troubles then just incorrect number of visible points. For now, I do not have a simple solution on this. POI grouping needs completely rewrite to correctly handle this show/hide state and Network link also needs a huge improvements because data loaded over network link are not anymore connected to original network link file.


So for now sorry, but do not expect any improvements in this area. Take it as is for now - usable, but with minor issues. Thanks for understanding.

Thank you very much for your reply.

Yes, they are some small issue. No problem.

And for online kml, Locus seems don't support item show. See:

All is FYI. Small issue, too.
