Importing layers from Google My Maps
If your maps have their sharing links active you can just use download.file() by adapting the sharing link like this: https://www.google.com/maps/d/kml?mid=__MAPID__ If your maps are not public this will require authentication first (e.g., through RCurl: https://developers.google.com/gdata/articles/using_cURL#authenticating ).

Dear all, Can I import the layers from a Google My Maps based on it's link? I know I can go to the link, export the layers as KML and import that in R using rgdal. But that is tedious when you have a lot of links. Any suggestions? Best regards, ir.
