How to convert STL to KMZ?

You can convert STL files to KMZ format in several ways. The most proven option is to download dedicated software that allows you to convert between the STL and KMZ formats. At the bottom you will find a list of software programs that support STL and KMZ files and can also save them in new file formats.

STL File Type

STL file extension stands for Stereolithography File. It is a 3D model file type which can be opened in any 3D modeling software like Blender, Autodesk Maya, and many more. The STL file is also known as the STL format which is used by most CAD programs. The STL file format uses triangles to represent surfaces so that they can be easily converted into 3D printable objects.

KMZ File Type

KMZ files are typically used in geospatial modelling for Google Earth. They are a special type of file that geospatial modelling software, such as ArcGIS or QGIS, can use to share a geographic space with a particular coordinate system. It’s a Google Earth Placemark File (.KMZ) extension that is supported by most 3D modeling apps. It’s an open format and it uses the “EPSG:3857” projection for its coordinate system. There are many use cases of KMZ files such as generating 3D visualisations and providing insights about the world around us.
