+To create the kml structure that displayed the WMS-Image as a ground overlay in Google Earth, we used the <color> tag to set the colour of the map and thereby the transparency, as the alpha-value of the hexadecimal code, corresponds to the opacity of the item.
+
+Below you can see how the WMs-image is shown as a ground overlay with 30% opacity.
