About KWM files
The KWM file extension is primarily associated with Keyhole Markup Language used by Google Earth. These files store geographic data in XML format and are often used for mapping applications. Despite their usefulness, KWM files can be challenging to work with due to limited software support and conversion difficulties.
One primary challenge in converting KWM files is their specialized nature. The files are designed to store geographic data, making them less compatible with general-purpose document or image formats. Software like QGIS and ArcGIS can open and view KWM files, but conversion options within these applications can be limited.
Software and Conversion Options:
- QGIS: Open source software that supports KWM files and can convert them to formats like
.shp
(Shapefile) and.geojson
. - ArcGIS: Offers more extensive tools for converting KWM files to formats such as
.shp
(Shapefile) and.kml
(Keyhole Markup Language).
While converting KWM files to formats like .shp, .geojson, and .kml is possible through these software applications, the process can be cumbersome and not user-friendly. Drawbacks of using KWM files include their lack of compatibility with non-geographic software and the potential loss of data during conversion.
For a more streamlined and user-friendly experience, consider using Convert.Guru. Simply drag and drop your KWM files onto the website to convert them effortlessly into different formats.
The KWM Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best KWM converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
