For example, the "Schema" element must be after the Style elements in
a Document.

And second, the order of style in wrong: IconStyle preceeds
LabelStyle.

    <Style id="track_n">
      <LabelStyle>
        <scale>0</scale>
      </LabelStyle>
      <IconStyle>
        <scale>.5</scale>
        <Icon>
          <href>http://earth.google.com/images/kml-icons/track-
directional/track-none.png</href>
        </Icon>
      </IconStyle>
    </Style>

must be reordered:

    <Style id="track_n">
      <IconStyle>
        <scale>.5</scale>
        <Icon>
          <href>http://earth.google.com/images/kml-icons/track-
directional/track-none.png</href>
        </Icon>
      </IconStyle>
      <LabelStyle>
        <scale>0</scale>
      </LabelStyle>
    </Style>

There are a few similar errors in the file.

Example must be reordered as following:

<kml>
  <Document>
    <LookAt>...</LookAt>
    <Style id="track_n">
...
    </Style>
  <Schema>.../Schema>
  <Folder>..</Folder>
  </Document>
</kml>

This issue needs to be changed from Defect to 'Documentation error'.
