Google Maps Irish County Co-ordinates

Hi Lads,

I'm looking for the co-ordinates for the county borders to create a few polygons on google maps. Anyone have any

or know somewhere I can download them or something?

Thanks
Gary

I haven't tested this out, but it looks like what you're looking for

Google Earth KMZ Link for Ireland & UK county borders

Now that seems to be the job thanks for that, have to figure out how to convert KMZ to CSV now.

GaryCocs,

did you ever get this converted? I'm looking for the same and if you have it done could you share?

KMZ files are actually ZIP files.

You can open it up with any ZIP utility, eg. the free 7-Zip utility.
When you open up the 080505-__GB_and_Ireland_County_Boundaries_[92977].kmz file in the link I provided with 7-Zip, there's an XML based file called doc.kml

So you can open doc.kml with any text editor and extract the coordinates manually.
