You can now better configure the lookat and camera position for the Earth maptype (when initially shown!). The parameter lookat is added (version => 2.12l). This parameter consists of 7 parameters seperate by a , (comma):

• Latitude
• Longitude
• Range - to set zoom
• Tilt for lookat
• Tilt for camera
• Roll for camera
• Flyspeed

See for explaination: Camera Control

For example setting the tilt for lookat:

{mosmap kml='http://gis.blueventures.org/images/kml/coastal_communes_poverty.kml'|width='100%'|height='620'|
mapType='Earth'|centerlat='-22.4134'|centerlon='44.3342'|zoom='6'|lookat=',,,60'}
