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.


U3D Universal 3D File

An open standard for 3D data exchange, originally developed by the 3D Industry Forum to enable universal 3D visualization across platforms. As a compressed, binary file format, U3D efficiently stores three-dimensional triangular meshes along with additional properties such as color, transparency, or texture coordinates.

Key Features of U3D

  • Open Standard: Royalty-free format maintained by ECMA International (Standard ECMA-363).
  • PDF Integration: U3D enables the generation of PDF documents that contain interactive 3D data (ISO 32000). This means that you can view, rotate, zoom, and manipulate 3D models within a PDF document.
  • Compact Size: Optimized compression for web and document embedding.
  • Cross-Platform: Viewable across major operating systems without proprietary software.

U3D File Conversion

Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application utilize Intel's powerful open-source IFX conversion library to deliver robust U3D file conversion capabilities. This technology enables seamless two-way conversion between the U3D format and various industry-standard 3D formats including STL, OBJ, SKP, DAE, STEP, IGES, DWG, 3DS, FBX and X3D. The solution provides reliable transformation of 3D data while maintaining optimal file structure and visual fidelity throughout the conversion process.
