PLY to KMZ
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to PLY and KMZ interoperability and exchange that could help you with the PLY to KMZ conversion.
PLY File
PLY (Polygon File Format or Stanford Triangle Format) is a file format developed to store three dimensional triangles with additional properties e.g. color, normals, transparency or texture coordinates. However, Autoconverter our PLY file converter can only read and write mesh geometry without the material properties, as in the PLY file they can vary between triangle vertices. You can save PLY files in a binary or ASCII text file format, with the preference for the binary version due to a significant PLY file size saving.
KMZ Google Earth Placemark
KMZ (Google Earth Placemark) file format for Google Earth and Google Earth Pro allows you to store geographical data including point, line string and polygon geometry in the optimal way regarding the file size in the comparison to KML file format thanks to the ZIP file compression. Our Automapki Application for AutoCAD, BricsCAD and ZWCAD allows you to import KMZ maps into DWG model space and recreate every point, line string, polygon and Collada DAE model geometry saved in the optimized KMZ file. The Automapki Application can also export your point, polygon, curve and image DWG drawing entities to the compressed KMZ file format which can be processed further in Google Earth.
