Keyhole Markup Language (KML) File
The Keyhole Markup Language (KML) file format, originally created by Keyhole, Inc. (later acquired by Google), is a widely used standard for storing and sharing geospatial information. KML files are essential for visualizing geographic data in applications like Google Earth, Google Earth Pro, ArcGIS, QGIS, and other mapping platforms.
Main Features of KML Files
- XML-Based Format: KML files use an easy-to-edit XML structure to define geographic features such as points, paths, polygons, and 3D models for interactive mapping projects.
- Broad Compatibility: KML files are fully supported across popular GIS and CAD applications, enabling seamless data sharing, visualization, and analysis across multiple platforms.
- Rich Media Support: Embed images, videos, links, and other multimedia elements inside KML placemarks and descriptions to create dynamic and informative maps.
KML File Conversion and Integration
Convert and manage KML files effortlessly with our Automapki Application. Easily transform your AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD DWG entities - including points, polygons, curves, meshes, and 3D solids - into high-quality KML files. You can also import KML data back into your DWG drawings with full precision and control.

Google Earth KMZ Placemark File Format
The KMZ file format is a compressed version of KML (Keyhole Markup Language) files, bundling associated resources - such as images, textures, 3D models, and overlays - into a single, efficient archive. Designed for sharing complex geospatial projects, KMZ files are natively supported by Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, making them ideal for professional geographic data visualization and distribution.
Key Features and Benefits of KMZ Files
- Efficient ZIP Compression: KMZ files use standard ZIP compression to dramatically reduce file size, optimize storage space, and enable faster uploads and downloads compared to standalone KML files.
- Comprehensive Geospatial Data Support: Support for points, line strings, polygons, overlays, and 3D models (Collada DAE) allows KMZ files to deliver rich, interactive geographic content.
- Wide Software Compatibility: KMZ files can be seamlessly opened, edited, and shared across popular geospatial applications such as Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, QGIS, and more, ensuring smooth project collaboration.
KMZ File Conversion Made Simple
With our Automapki Application, you can easily import and export KMZ files within AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD environments. Quickly convert DWG entities - including points, curves, polygons, 3D solids, and raster images - into KMZ format for seamless use in Google Earth. You can also reverse the process, converting KMZ files back into DWG drawings for further editing and enhancement.
