Defines a closed line string, typically the outer boundary of a Polygon. Optionally, a LinearRing can also be used as the inner boundary of a Polygon to create holes in the Polygon. A Polygon can contain multiple elements used as inner boundaries.
Note: In Google Earth, a Polygon with an of clampToGround follows the great circle; however, a LinearRing (by itself) with an of clampToGround follows lines of constant latitude.
Syntax: <LinearRing id="ID"> <!-- specific to LinearRing --> <extrude>0</extrude> <!-- boolean --> <tessellate>0</tessellate> <!-- boolean --> <altitudeMode>clampToGround</altitudeMode> <!-- kml:altitudeModeEnum: clampToGround, relativeToGround, or absolute --> <!-- or, substitute gx:altitudeMode: clampToSeaFloor, relativeToSeaFloor --> <coordinates>...</coordinates> <!-- lon,lat[,alt] tuples --> </LinearRing>
