KML to SVG Conversion
What are KML files?
The KML format uses a variant of the XML language, called Keyhole Markup Language, to manage geospatial data. It is used for rendering detailed maps by browsing applications such as Google Earth. The KLM format supports various handy features, including placemarks, paths and ground overlays, and can be edited with any text editor.
What are SVG files?
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is an open standard vector format that uses the XML markup language and can contain animated or interactive graphics. The SVG format was developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an organization promoting the development and interoperability of web products and offering such products freely. SVG files are supported by most web browsers and can be created with drawing programs or text editors.
