Display CSV (with WKT geometry field) files on Google Maps with this Mapplet
If you want to display a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file with an embedded geometry field in Well Known Text (WKT) format with just an Internet browser, then this Mapplet may be useful to you. Just go to this url https://dominoc925-pages.appspot.com/mapplets/vcsvfile.html with any modern browser such as Chrome, or FireFox. All the processing is done within your browser, that is the CSV file is never uploaded to a server for processing.
