Re: [Geoserver-users] Automatically display new geoserver layers with Google Earth

[Arne K. <ar...@ti...>]

Not within GeoServer , I think, but you can handcraft a KML document 
(root node, pointing to the GeoServer layers) that expires after X 
minutes. This should cause GE to refresh the document after that time, 
and discover the links to new layers.

The next iteration would then be to script something that adds new 
layers dynamically, for example by parsing GeoServer's getcapabilities 
document.
