Keyhole Markup Language

Keyhole Markup Language is a file format for displaying data on maps.

In the same way that a Web browser displays web pages written with HTML, KML draws data on maps like Google Maps and virtual globes like Google Earth.

It is an international standard , maintained by the Open Geospatial Consortium .

Google, the previous maintainers of the specification, have information on writing KML on their website.
