What is GeoRGE?
GeoRGE is a webservice to convert GeoRSS Newsfeeds to Google Earths Keyhole Markup Language (KML).

How can I use GeoRGE?
GeoRGE is an interoperable webservice which will answer to HTTP GET and HTTP POST requests.
The GET requests will work as KVP encodings and the POST request have to be send as requests.

What action has to be done to use GeoRGE?
1. Copy the URL of your favorite GeoRSS Newsfeed.
2. Go to http://mars.uni-muenster.de:8080/GeoRGE/AddFeed.htm
3. Paste the URL of the GeoRSS Newsfeed into the form at the bottom of the page, in fact replace the text for the element http://www.yourfeedurl.com
4. Send the request and save the file as your favorite name and in your favorite folder.
5. Open Google Earth and load the saved file.
6. That's it, you should now be able to see the entries of the Newsfeed at the specific locations.

Is there any possibility to get the already stored newsfeeds?
Yes, there is! Go to the Capabilities page. This XML file contains a list of already stored GeoRSS Newsfeeds and provides an feedID, a title, a feedURL and the name of the kmlfile of every feed. Notice the feedID of your favorite feed. Now you've got two possibilities to get the feed.
1. Go to http://mars.uni-muenster.de:8080/GeoRGE/GetKMLFile.htm and enter your favorite feedID into the element feedID and send the request to GeoRGE. The result will be a file. OR
2. Open Google Earth, create a NetworkLink and type in http://mars.uni-muenster.de:8080/GeoRGE/GeoRGE?getKMLContent=1 as the URL. Change the feedID to your favorite feedID, e.g. 3
