Revision as of 18:03, 25 February 2009 by Djsasso (talk | changes) (moved KML to Keyhole Markup Language: move away from acronym)

KML (an acronym for Keyhole Markup Language), is file format for displaying data on maps.

In the same way that a Web browser displays web pages written with HTML, KML draws your data on maps like Google Maps and virtual globes like Google Earth.

It is an international standard [1], maintained by the Open Geospatial Consortium [2].

Google, the previous maintainers of the specification, have extensive documentation [3].
