GeLog is a free tool which allows you to see your ADIF file in Google Earth.
GeLog was originally made to analize contest logs, but you can use it to load any ADIF file.
The following video show an example of a KML file generated by GeLog
By using the Google Earth time line you can see when each QSO happens.
Before using GeLog

Google Earth
In order to view the generated KML files you must have Google Earth installed.
Download Google Earth from http://www.google.es/intl/es/earth/index.html
QRZ XML Account
GeLog resolves stations locations in two ways:
Through QRZ.com (recommended).
To use this mode is necessary to have an account with access to XML QRZ.com Logbook Data service http://www.qrz.com/XML/index.html
Through a local database that should be imported using the import tool provided by the application.
If you run GeLog without a valid QRZ account and having an empty local database, GeLogs will assign a default location based on the call prefix., this means all QSOs of the same country will have the same coordinates.
