Anyone know how to overlay servex centrelines onto Google earth?

The recent digital surveying course organised by the cave surveying group covered some of this - I'd recommend anyone wanting to get to grips with this stuff to attend a future one, if they can, for hands on non condescending advice.  (but of course this forum is good too).

A method I have used where I have also wanted to show the centreline or complete survey on OS maps of various dates is using a drawing programme & importing the maps (I use oldmaps as they are corrected to grid north & scale for pre national grid editions) & googlearth as screen prints. Bear in mind googleearth needs to be corrected from true north to grid north, & can then be scaled to fit to the maps. The survex data can be imported as a DFX file, but will need putting at the right scale & location. This may seem long winded but works for me.
