Convert KML to DWG online
Upload a KML or KMZ, check it on the map, download a DWG or DXF in metres, ready for AutoCAD.
Why convert KML to DWG here?
- Google Earth degrees are projected to UTM metres automatically, or to the EPSG you choose.
- Folders and placemark names become CAD layers.
- DXF by default, DWG R2000 on request.
- See it on the map before you download.
How it works
- UploadDrop your file, up to 50 MB. Nothing to install, no account.
- See it on the mapEvery layer drawn on a map in a minute or two. Click an object to see its attributes.
- Place & checkCoordinate system from the file, from the coordinate labels, by search or with 2 points. AI names the layers; you correct them.
- DownloadFiles under 1 MB are free (3 a day). Bigger files: one payment per conversion.

FAQ
Why is my KML tiny or far away in AutoCAD?
KML stores degrees, AutoCAD expects metres. We project it to the UTM zone of your data (or the system you pick), so distances are right.
Does it work with Google My Maps exports?
Yes, export the map as KML or KMZ and upload it.
Which AutoCAD versions open the file?
DXF opens in every version. The DWG option is R2000, read by every AutoCAD since 2000.
What happens to my files?
Your files are deleted after 24 hours and never used for AI training. They are only used to make your conversion.
Can I get a refund?
No: the free map preview is there so you can check the result before you pay. If a file doesn't open, e-mail us and we'll fix the conversion.
Paid downloads?
Paid downloads open in a few days. Until then files under 1 MB download for free, and Max AI is free to try.
