Shape files are not lining up with roads on map.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Load feed
2.Check line 3 for example
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The shape files do not match the roads on the map

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.
I have had nothing but frustrations and difficulties trying to get this feed to 
work and the response time on this forum has been a minimum of at least a month 
before I hear anything back. We would like to go live but it is taking an 
unreasonable amount of time for support.

Hi,

I'm sorry this forum has not been responsive for you.

I grabbed your test file, converted it to a .kml file and loaded it up in 
Earth.  Most of it looks sane, but I suspect what you're talking about are 
shapes as shown in the attached image.

Looking through your datafiles, it looks like the shapes are being represented 
correctly as they appear in your shape file.  I see that 
(34.00482985,-118.3886011) occurs in many places in the shape file, and seems 
to be consistently out of place:

$ grep -n 34.00482985 feed2/shapes.txt 
202:3S_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,201
228:3SATN_B7AM_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,227
272:3SATN_A7AM_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,271
307:3SATN_A7PM_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,306
366:3SATS_A7AM_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,365
415:3SATS_A7PM_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,414
622:4E_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,621
645:4W_shp,34.00482985,-118.3886011,644

So can you be more specific about how you generated this particular shape file? 
 Is this being generated by the transxchange converter utilities?  I'm happy to 
go bug-hunting, but I need more context to know where to look.

Cheers,
  -J
