SVG to KML Converter
Convert SVG files to KML format for Google Earth, Google Maps, and other KML-compatible applications. Georeferenced SVG shapes become KML placemarks.
How to Use
Upload SVG
Upload your SVG with geographic shapes.
Set bounding coordinates
Define the geographic bounding box (SW and NE corners in lat/lon).
Download KML
Download the .kml file and open in Google Earth or My Maps.
SVG to KML for Google Earth and Maps
KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is the geographic format used by Google Earth and Google My Maps. Converting SVG to KML allows you to display vector artwork as geographic overlays in these popular applications. The converter georeferencing the SVG coordinate space to WGS84 lat/lon coordinates based on your specified bounding box.
Real-World Examples & Use Cases
Google Earth Overlays
Convert an SVG historical map to KML for display as an overlay in Google Earth.
