Converts a phylogenetic tree and the tip taxa's geographic coordinates into a KML file for Google Earth viewing. This is the work of Andrew W. Hill, Brian Stucky, and Robert Guralnick. We will be working to add many new features as well as integrate the project with another of ours, PhyloBox.

ABSTRACT GeoPhylo is a scalable online service for developing 3-dimensional geographic visualizations of phylogenetic trees in the keyhole markup language (KML). These geographic phylogenies, geophylogenies, can then be viewed in Google Earth or Nasa's World Wind. Advanced features provide users the ability to change many aspects such as scaling and coloring of branches. The GeoPhylo engine has been deployed on the Google App Engine in order to be scalable, sustainable and easily updated, while providing long-term support for stable releases. These features will allow developers to use GeoPhylo as a service in their own applications without concerns of incompatible changes made in future updates.
