Kuhnke-International, as part of their firm’s work in satellite telecommunications and terrestrial microwave telecom, maintains an internal GIS database of notable teleport and earth station facilities worldwide. They are now publishing individual sub-sections of this data, gathered entirely from personal observations and public domain information sources, to provide potential clients and partners with KML-based Google Earth maps.
Here are some of the more interesting Google Earth Maps.
- Locations, roads and other facilities in Afghanistan (86KB .KMZ)
- Libyan towns, cities, airports and other points of interest (32KB .KMZ)
- Pakistan (290KB .KMZ)
- Satellite data and telecommunications Earth Stations and Teleports in US/Canada. (244KB .KMZ)
- Satellite television and broadcast related Earth Stations and Teleports in US/Canada. (46KB .KMZ)
- Teleports: Military and Government, primarily US DoD but also NATO related. (101KB .KMZ)
- Satellite Earth Stations and Teleports, both data communications oriented and broadcast television (83KB .KMZ)
- Research facilities, radio astronomy and other science related satellite earth stations (4.5KB .KMZ)
