Welcome to the official Google KML Developer Support group!

KML is a file format used to display geographic data in an Earth browser, such as Google Earth, Google Maps, and Google Maps for mobile.

This forum is the place for you to post questions, share ideas, and post your example projects for feedback.

BEFORE YOU POST:

 - For KML questions, please search for documentation and FAQ for possible answers:   
 - Please search for your question in this grouip, as someone may have asked it (and been answered!) before.

 - If you're looking for help with Google Earth in general, and not with KML files, please check out the Google Earth Help Group 

-  If your question is about the Earth API, it's a lot easier to debug something when you have live code running on a web page. It is often difficult to debug code snippets.    

-  Also, please check the Earth API documentation before asking questions about the Earth API.
You may also want to read our charter for guidelines on posting and general etiquette. Also, check out the KML Support Group FAQs page for more information about posting in this group.

This group is regularly read by various Google employees who will pop in from time to time to make announcements, answer questions, or solicit feedback. Google employee posts will show up with a green "G" badge.

Enjoy posting, and welcome to the community!
