XYZ to KMZ
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to XYZ and KMZ interoperability and exchange that could help you with the XYZ to KMZ conversion.
- Mesh reconstruction from point cloud data
- Convert point cloud to mesh for SketchUp
- Import and export STL, OBJ, 3DS, PLY, 3DM, SKP, IGES and STEP files
XYZ Point Cloud File
XYZ (Point cloud data) is a file extension used for ASCII text files with the point cloud data. Each row of XYZ file contains 3D point coordinates separated by a special character, usually a TAB and optionally 3D normal vector coordinates for that point. The normal vectors for the points are optional as it is possible to generate them on the fly based on the point cloud structure. Autoconverter is our XYZ file converter which allows you to automatically reconstruct the mesh surface from the point cloud data. Autoshaper is another XYZ file converter which allows you to reconstruct a smooth NURBS surface from scattered points stored in the XYZ file. The alternative file extension for point cloud data can be either ASC or TXT.
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.
