File Description

Stores map locations viewable in Google Earth, a global mapping program; provides a birdseye view of locations throughout the U.S. and other areas of the world; placemarks may include a custom name and the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of the location.

KMZ files may also include limited 3D model data exported from Google Sketchup (as an .SKP file) or from ArchiCAD; the model can be placed on the map at a specific location to provide an idea of what the building will look like in that area.

Google bought Keyhole Software on October 27, 2004.
