It doesn&#8217;t require any specialized software. Tools such as Google Earth and 7-Zip are all you need. So, let&#8217;s get started in converting these Google Earth formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Converting KML to KMZ<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Converting a KML to KMZ makes sense because it <strong>compresses the file size<\/strong>. First, it makes it more manageable to work with your data. Plus, you have the added benefit of better performance when working with larger files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how do you convert KML to KMZ? Actually, it&#8217;s quite simple. All you have to do is add it to <a href=\"https:\/\/gisgeography.com\/google-earth-vs-google-maps\/\">Google Earth<\/a>. Then, right-click your layer in the &#8220;Places&#8221; frame. In the screenshot below, it\u2019s the <em>13 Colonies Template<\/em>.
