DWG to KMZ: Resources
Refer to the following resources for additional support on the interoperability and exchange of DWG and KMZ file formats. They will assist you in transitioning from DWG to KMZ files.
- KML and KMZ Files in AutoCAD DWG Drawings
- Export KML Google Earth Map from DWG AutoCAD
- Import KML Google Earth Map into DWG AutoCAD
- 3D Modeling Capabilities in Georeferenced KML and KMZ Files
- Import and Export of Map Files in AutoCAD
- Automesher and Automapki Applications Support ZWCAD 2024
DWG Drawing
The DWG (AutoCAD Drawing) binary file format, developed by Autodesk for AutoCAD, is also supported by other software packages such as ZWCAD, BricsCAD, and IntelliCAD. As a result, DWG files have become the industry standard in CAD. Our add-ons, Automesher Application and Automapki Application, for your DWG editor, enable you to effortlessly convert DWG drawing entities into various 3D and GIS file formats. This facilitates seamless sharing of your AutoCAD designs across different platforms and applications.
KMZ Google Earth Placemark
The KMZ (Google Earth Placemark) file format, designed for use with Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, offers an optimized method for storing geographical data, including point, line string, and polygon geometries. This efficiency is achieved through the use of ZIP file compression, which distinguishes it from the standard KML file format. Our Automapki Application, compatible with AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD, allows for the import of KMZ maps into the DWG model space, accurately recreating every point, line string, polygon, and Collada DAE model geometry from the compressed KMZ file. In addition, our Automapki Application provides the ability to export your point, polygon, curve, and image DWG drawing entities to the compressed KMZ file format.
