Hey,

Just wanted to drop in and say thank you to this community for all of the amazing data and information provided on this site and wanted to provide back to this community. I am a game modder (create additional free content for games). I created a video of a live google earth view of the uboat patrol data provided from uboat.net and thought It would be good to share.

[youtu.be]

All of the data was sourced from uboat.net German Uboat patrol data, compiled into a Excel, then converted into a KML file. With a little video editing I added a date visual at the bottom of the video. I know it can be hard to see some of the lines on the map, youtube can be very unforgiving with compression, and wont allow the full uncompressed video to be uploaded at a higher quality.

--Note if this post is inappropriate for this forum then please remove. I hope this adds value to the community.

Again numerous thanks to the creator Guemunder Helgason and the team supporting this site. None of this would be possible without the amazing work done by them.

Regards,
