CityJSON File
A modern, JSON based (JavaScript Object Notation) file format designed for storing 3D city models. It efficiently represents buildings, roads, bridges, and other urban features with support for textures, semantics, and metadata.
Key Features of CityJSON
- JSON-Based: Lightweight, human-readable, and easy to parse (no complex XML like CityGML).
- Semantic Richness: Preserves object attributes (e.g., building heights, roof types, road classifications).
- LOD Support: Stores multiple Levels of Detail (LOD1 - LOD4) for flexible use cases.
- Web-Ready: Works seamlessly with JavaScript, APIs, and 3D web viewers (like Cesium or Three.js).
- Open Standard: Developed and maintained by the 3D Geoinformation Group (Delft University).
- Format Alert: CityJSON and GeoJSON both use the .json extension - always verify the data structure before processing.

Keyhole Markup Language File
A file format developed by Keyhole, Inc. (later acquired by Google), that enables you to store and share geographical data with Google Earth, Google Earth Pro, and other geospatial software.
Key Features of KML
- XML Format: KML files use XML to store points, line strings, polygons, and Collada DAE models, which can be easily edited and customized.
- Interoperability: KML files can be viewed and manipulated by various applications and software, such as Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, QGIS, and more.
- Embedded Media: Users can embed images, videos, and links within KML placemarks and descriptions to enhance geographical presentations.
KML File Conversion
Our Automapki Application supports importing and exporting KML files and is fully compatible with AutoCAD, Bricscad, and ZWCAD. With this tool, you can seamlessly convert DWG entities - including points, polygons, curves, meshes, 3D solids, and raster images - to KML format, as well as transform KML data back into DWG entities.
