KML to STL
The following resources are provided for your reference, focusing on the interoperability and exchange between KML and STL file formats. They are designed to assist you in the transition from KML to STL file.

KML Google Earth
The KML (Keyhole Markup Language) file format, which is used in Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, allows for the storage of geographical data. This includes point, line string, and polygon geometry, all in an XML textual format. Our Automapki Application, compatible with AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD, enables a seamless import of KML maps into the DWG model space. This process accurately reproduces every point, line string, polygon, and Collada DAE model geometry from the KML file. Furthermore, Automapki Application provides the ability to export your point, polygon, curve, and image DWG drawing entities to the KML file format.
STL File
The STL (STereoLithography) file format, developed by 3D Systems, a global leader in the 3D printing industry, exclusively contains triangular mesh data. It does not include information on face color, texture, transparency, and named groups. Although it is possible to assign RGB color values to individual vertices, it’s important to note that our STL file converter, Autoconverter software, currently does not support this extension. STL files can be saved in either binary or ASCII text formats, with the binary format being preferred due to its significant reduction in file size. Additionally, it’s worth noting that triangles in STL files are always defined in millimeters, and our STL converter will perform the necessary units conversion if required.
