If you have KML content with lines/paths then Google Earth can plot an Elevation Profile for it.

By default the Y-axis of the chart displays the elevation, and the X-axis of the chart displays the distance.

To plot other values (e.g. heartrate, cadence, power, etc.) the geometry of the Placemark should be one of Google's KML extensions, namely gx:Track, where you can add those values in an ExtendedData tag with gx:SimpleArrayData.

Go to Edit > Show Elevation Profile, or right-click on your path from the Places panel and select 'Show Elevation Profile'.

How do you plot acreage?

An easy and relative accurate way is by marking the area to be measured in Google Earth and exporting it as a KML file. It is then possible to easily view this file again in Google Earth or on Google maps Google Earth Professional allows you measure acreage, but it is quite expensive if all you are interested in is measuring area. There are cheaper programs like EasyAcreage (www.wildsoft.org/EasyAcreage) that uses the KML export methods that exists in the standard free version of Google Earth to calculate acreage.
