I had seen this today too...it doesn't seem to work either?

Thanks though.

I imagine the final image is the last written.

https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/time
explores various methods and additional tags employed for rendering sequences
and controlling overlays.
Hope it is in the right direction.

Subject: [R-sig-Geo] ground overlays in KML

Hello again.

I'm not sure if I should ask this here, but I thought it might be a place to start:

I'm producing PNG files for ground overlays in Google Earth.  After some help from you this afternoon, my png files are ready.  However, the files do not run in sequence in Google Earth.  It shows the last file only.

Here is a little bit of the code:

<kml xmlns:xsd="http://schemas.opengis.net/kml/2.2.0/ogckml22.xsd" xmlns:xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2/" version="1.0">
<Document>
<Folder>
<GroundOverlay>
<name>2001</name>
<TimeSpan><begin> 2001-01-01 </begin>
<end> 2001-12-31 </end></TimeSpan>
<Icon><href>preda_01.png</href><viewBoundScale>0.75</viewBoundScale></Icon>
<LatLonBox><north>36.48445398908</north><south>25.9875545196567</south><east>-93.5186130430667</east><west>-106.704257739431</west></LatLonBox>
</GroundOverlay><GroundOverlay>

</GroundOverlay>

I'm also attaching the png files.

Thanks for any help.
