Download your KML
Click download to save the converted .kml file, or copy the output text. That's it — no account, no watermark, no limits.
GeoJSONL — also called newline-delimited GeoJSON, NDJSON or GeoJSON Text Sequence (RFC 8142) — writes one GeoJSON feature per line instead of wrapping everything in a single FeatureCollection. That streaming-friendly layout lets tools like Tippecanoe, BigQuery and DuckDB read enormous datasets line by line without loading the whole file into memory. It's the format of choice for large-scale geospatial pipelines.
Need the other direction instead? KML is google Earth's XML format for placemarks and overlays. KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is an OGC standard XML format created for Google Earth and used widely across Google Maps, mobile mapping apps and GIS software. It stores placemarks, paths, polygons, styling and folder structure, which makes it ideal for sharing annotated maps with non-technical audiences. A KML file is plain text; when zipped with its assets it becomes a KMZ.

GeoJSONL to KML — FAQ
- How do I convert GeoJSONL to KML?
- Upload your .geojsonl file using the converter above (drag & drop or click to browse). GeoMaps converts it to KML instantly in your browser and gives you a .kml file to download. No software to install and no signup required.
- Is the GeoJSONL to KML converter free?
- Yes — it's completely free with no usage limits, watermarks or account needed. We offer it as a free tool from GeoMaps, the platform for turning your data into interactive maps.
- Is my data private? Are my files uploaded to a server?
- No. The conversion runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript — your file is never uploaded to any server. Because nothing leaves your device, it's safe for sensitive or confidential data and works even offline once the page has loaded.
- Can I convert KML back to GeoJSONL?
- Yes. Use our KML to GeoJSONL converter for the reverse conversion — every format on GeoMaps converts both ways.
- How large a file can I convert?
- Because conversion happens in your browser, the limit is your device's memory rather than a server quota — files up to tens of megabytes convert comfortably on a typical laptop. Very large datasets may be slower depending on your machine.
