Convert KMZ to 3DM

KMZ to 3DM Conversion

Step-by-step instructions to help you transform KMZ into 3DM with ease:

  1. Download & Install:

    Convert your KMZ maps to 3DM format seamlessly using Autoconverter - simply install and launch the software on your system.

  2. Import KMZ Map:

    Either click Open... to browse for your .kmz map, or drag and drop it anywhere in the application window.

  3. Export to 3DM Format:

    Use Save As... to specify both location and filename (with .3dm extension) for your exported file.

Finding it hard to convert KMZ to 3DM? These professional resources simplify KMZ maps conversion:

KMZ 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.

3DM Rhinoceros 3D File

The native file format for Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino), a powerful and versatile NURBS-based 3D modeling software. As Rhino’s default format, 3DM is designed to store precise mathematical representations of curves, surfaces, and solids, making it ideal for high-accuracy modeling across industries.

Supported Geometry Types

Known for its precision and versatility, the 3DM format supports a comprehensive range of geometric data types, making it ideal for both organic freeform modeling and technical CAD applications, including:

  • NURBS Surfaces:

    Enables mathematically precise, smooth, and editable surfaces essential for high-end industrial and automotive design.

  • Polygonal Meshes:

    Stores tessellated geometry for 3D printing, rendering, and simulation.

  • SubD (Subdivision Surfaces):

    Allows for flexible, organic modeling with editable subdivision geometry.

  • Instance References:

    Lightweight object copies (not duplicates) that reference a single source, saving memory and ensuring synchronized updates.

3DM File Conversion

Our software solutions enable seamless conversion between 3DM and other major CAD formats (e.g., STEP, IGES, OBJ, DWG, STL). Autoconverter exports only polygonal meshes (STL, OBJ, etc.), suitable for 3D printing and real-time rendering, while Autoshaper preserves NURBS geometry, ensuring superior accuracy for CAD, CAM, and engineering workflows. Both converters can save 3DM files in legacy formats (Rhino 2.X - 7.X) or the latest Rhino 8.X version, ensuring smooth collaboration across different software environments.
