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.

Polygon File
A a simple and flexible file format to store 3D mesh data. It supports vertices, faces (triangles/polygons), colors, normals, and custom properties. PLY is also known as the Stanford Triangle Format as it was developed at Stanford University in the early 1990s. It still remains a popular choice for storing 3D geometry.
Key Features of PLY
- Flexible Structure: Supports vertices, faces (triangles/polygons), edges, and custom data.
- Properties: Can store RGB colors, normals, texture coordinates, transparency, and user-defined attributes.
- ASCII & Binary Formats: PLY files can be saved in ASCII (readable) or binary (compact) form.
PLY File Conversion
Autoconverter is the best tool for converting PLY files because it handles all major 3D formats (STL, OBJ, FBX, STEP, etc.) while preserving colors, textures, and mesh accuracy. It offers fast batch conversions, an easy drag-and-drop interface, and works seamlessly across CAD, 3D scanning, and game development workflows.
