I took all the postcode sectors for the UK and created this KMZ file. The accuracy at the street level leaves something to be desired.If I could find any interesting post code sector data, I would be interested in creating a thematic map. Anything with counts and/or dates.Here is a real estate example. Use your imagination to estimate what the count represents.I tried adding the file here but

Government Data in 3D via the Google Earth API

2008-11-03T16:41:00.000-08:00

I have been reading with some interest in using the Google Earth API to view public data in your average browser. 3D is available using the center mouse button but I really do miss the Google Earth navigation tool they got rid of in the old version for tilting. The new one just is not as intuitive (or useful, in my opinion). 4D, or time slider inclusion, is still a feature request for the API
