What is a KML file?
KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is an XML-based format used for representing geographic data in Earth browsers like Google Earth. It describes placemarks, paths, polygons, and other geospatial elements.
KML is widely used in mapping, environmental research, and tourism to display annotated geographic locations. Files can be extended with images, 3D models, and time-based data.
How to open KML files
KML files can be opened with Google Earth, Google Maps, and various GIS software such as QGIS. They are used for geographic data visualization.
Convert KML to GPX, KMZ, or CSV using AnyConv or GIS tools for use across mapping platforms.

What is a XML file?
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a flexible, structured data format used to store and transport information. It uses custom tags to define and organize content, making it both human- and machine-readable.
XML is widely used in web development, configuration files, and data exchange between systems. It serves as the foundation for many other formats like RSS, SVG, and SOAP.
How to open XML files
XML files can be opened with any text editor or code editor, such as Notepad++, Visual Studio Code, or Sublime Text. Web browsers also render them in a tree structure.
