CrunchUp2KML

CrunchUp2KML - a MapCruncher to KML superoverlay converter.
CrunchUp2KML converts layers found in MapCruncherMetadata.xml (MapLayers.crunched.xml in earlier versions of MapCruncher) to a kml superoverlay (nested regions of ground overlays with different level of details), which can be imported in Google Earth.
