KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is an XML-based Markup language for managing three-dimensional geospatial Data in the program Google Earth (previously called Keyhole before it was bought up by Google). KML files are often distributed as KMZ, Data compression KML files. The KML file specifies a feature (a placemark, image, or polygon) for Google Earth. It contains a basic description of the place, longitude, latitude, tilt and other information (such as a specified camera view). KML shares some of the same structural grammar as Geography Markup Language[http://geoweb.blog.com/313918/]
