About KMZ

Google Earth (KML + COLLADA)

KMZ is a zipped Google Earth package: a KML placemark with a COLLADA 3D model and its textures.

About STL

Stereolithography

STL describes only the surface of a model as triangles — no colors, materials or textures. It is the default format for 3D printing and slicers.

How it works

  1. 01

    Drop the .kmz file (with its textures or .bin/.mtl files, if any).

  2. 02

    Check the model in the 3D preview; STL is already selected.

  3. 03

    Click “Convert” and the .stl file downloads.

Questions

Is the KMZ to STL converter free?+

Yes, without limits, sign-up or watermark.

Is my KMZ file uploaded?+

No. The KMZ file is read and converted in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.

Why are textures missing after converting KMZ?+

Textures stored as separate files must be selected together with the model. STL keeps them only if the format supports textures.
