- Description
- A ZIP file is an archive that contains one or more files compressed or "zipped" using Zip compression. It stores files separately from each other allowing the files to be compressed using different methods and extracted without compressing or decompressing the entire archive.
- A KML (Keyhole Markup Language File) is a plaintext file format used to display geographic data in an Earth browser such as Google Earth, Google Maps, and MapQuest. KML files specify various geographic information, including points, lines, images, polygons, and models, along with attributes like descriptions, place marks, and camera angles. This format, which is based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language), allows users to not only visualize but also navigate through locations and structures.
