GE-Path, GE-Graph - Useful Freeware for Google Earth
One of the members of the GEC - Google Earth Community named Sgrillo (his id is 'rsgrillo' at GEC), has posted two freeware applications (Windows) he has been developing for Google Earth. Sgrillo is from Ilheus, Bahia, Brazil.
The first application is called GE-Path and as you might guess allows you to draw paths and save them as KML files for sharing with other GE - Google Earth users. But, this application also lets you draw polygons, calculate areas, measure distances, and he has added a number of export options such as Excel, and comma delimited text files. The paths (or polygons) are created by placing placemarks in GE and then importing the resulting KML into GE-Path.
The second application, GE-Graph similarly allows you to put data in placemarks and it will create bar graphs. You can set graph values, colors, scales, and labels. It also supports importing and exporting options.
To download these two applications go the the web site which has more details and screenshots. You can see an example KML of GE-Graph 
here. Great work Sgrillo!

GE-Path and GE-Graph were update recently to be compatible with GE4. GE-Graph have now much more options of graphs, including irregular polygons (state/province borders, etc); custom color scale, etc.

When it comes to be able to make more various graphs, it is good. I think it is interesting this provides the function like in Google Earth Plus, because it provides the ability to create paths using the PlaceMark function, etc.
