About KML files
KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is an XML-based language used to represent geographical data and associated content. It is used to store and display geographic data in a variety of applications, such as Google Earth, Google Maps, and other geospatial software. KML files can be created and edited with text editors, and can be converted to other formats with software such as GDAL or ogr2ogr. KML files can be converted to other formats such as GeoJSON, Shapefile, CSV, and GPX.
KML files can be challenging to convert due to the complexity of the language and the variety of data types it can contain. It can be difficult to convert KML files to other formats without losing data or formatting. Additionally, some software may not support all KML features, making conversion more difficult.
For these reasons, it is recommended to use Convert.Guru to convert KML files. Convert.Guru is a free and easy online website that can quickly and accurately convert KML files to other formats.

The KML Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our KML converter.
