Collada File
An open-standard, XML-based file format engineered for flawless 3D asset interoperability across digital content creation platforms. Initially created by Sony and currently maintained by the Khronos Group, DAE functions as a universal bridge for exchanging digital assets - including materials, mesh geometries, and hierarchical 3D scene nodes - between diverse 3D software ecosystems.
DAE Format Capabilities
Reusable Geometry Components:
You can store and reuse geometry instances that are referenced by multiple objects in your DAE scene, saving memory and disk space.Multiple Texture Images and Coordinates:
You can assign different texture images and texture coordinates to each face of your DAE model, creating complex and realistic materials.Color Transparency and Named Groups:
You can control the opacity and color of your mesh, as well as organize your DAE objects into named groups for easy selection and manipulation.
DAE File Conversion
Our Autoconverter and Autoshaper applications provide robust support for processing and converting DAE files with maximum fidelity. Leveraging the OpenCOLLADA framework, these tools ensure full compatibility with the latest COLLADA specifications (1.4 and 1.5). The OpenCOLLADA integration guarantees reliable handling of complex assets, from animated characters to textured environments.
Google Earth Placemark File
A compressed file format that bundles KML (Keyhole Markup Language) files along with their associated resources - such as images, textures, 3D models, and overlays - into a single, smaller archive. Designed for efficient storage and sharing, KMZ files are natively supported by Google Earth and Google Earth Pro, making them ideal for distributing complex geospatial projects.
Advantages and Features
ZIP Compression:
Using standard ZIP compression, this format significantly reduces file size and bandwidth usage compared to uncompressed KML, enabling faster transfers and more efficient storage.Geometrical Support:
The KMZ format accommodates diverse geospatial elements, including points, line strings, polygons, and 3D models (Collada DAE), allowing for rich representation of real-world features.Compatibility:
Widely supported across platforms, the KMZ file format works seamlessly with major geospatial tools like Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, and QGIS, ensuring easy sharing and editing.
KMZ File Converter
Our Automapki Application enables seamless KMZ file import and export in AutoCAD, BricsCAD, and ZWCAD. It allows you to convert DWG entities - such as points, lines, polygons, 3D solids, and raster images - into KMZ format for use in Google Earth. With full two-way conversion capabilities, Automapki add-on ensures smooth data exchange between these formats.
