KML Keyhole Markup Language File

A file format developed by Keyhole, Inc. (later acquired by Google), that enables you to store and share geographical data with Google Earth, Google Earth Pro, and other geospatial software.

Key Features of KML

• XML Format: KML files use XML to store points, line strings, polygons, and Collada DAE models, which can be easily edited and customized.
• Interoperability: KML files can be viewed and manipulated by various applications and software, such as Google Earth, Google Maps, ArcGIS, QGIS, and more.
• Embedded Media: Users can embed images, videos, and links within KML placemarks and descriptions to enhance geographical presentations.

KML File Conversion

Our Automapki Application supports importing and exporting KML files and is fully compatible with AutoCAD, Bricscad, and ZWCAD. With this tool, you can seamlessly convert DWG entities - including points, polygons, curves, meshes, 3D solids, and raster images - to KML format, as well as transform KML data back into DWG entities.

JSON GeoJSON Features File

A geospatial data interchange file format that encodes geographic features using lightweight JSON syntax. Designed for both simplicity and interoperability, it provides a versatile way to represent geometric primitives along with rich attribute data and spatial reference systems.

Key Features of GeoJSON

• JSON Syntax: The GeoJSON format uses JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), which is a lightweight and human-readable data format. It can store collections of geographic features and their custom properties in a structured and consistent way. It can also be easily parsed and validated by various software applications.
• Geographic Features: The GeoJSON format can store point, line string, polygon, and multi-geometry representations of geospatial data. These are defined in the WGS84 spatial reference system, which is the standard coordinate system for global positioning. Each feature has a geometry and a set of attributes that describe its properties, such as name, type, area, population, etc.
• Limitation on Appearance: Unlike other map file formats, GeoJSON does not provide a means to define the appearance or style of geographic features. This is an important consideration when planning your geospatial data visualization.

GeoJSON Map Converter

Automapki Application seamlessly integrates geospatial data with your CAD workflow, enabling direct GeoJSON import/export/convert within AutoCAD, Bricscad, and ZWCAD environments. This powerful add-on lets you combine precise CAD designs with real-world geospatial information, visualizing your projects in their actual geographic context. The application automatically handles coordinate system conversions and accurately projects GeoJSON features onto georeferenced DWG drawings, ensuring perfect spatial alignment.
