  • Developer: TomTom

What is KML file?

The KML (.KML) file extension is associated with Google Earth, ArcGIS Earth, and other geographic information systems (GIS) programs. It is primarily used for storing information related to geographic data, including map overlays, images, and points of interests. KML is an XML-based language employed by Google and other GIS applications and which allows users or developers to create new layers of data within GIS environments. [ ⏩ ] KML file extension

What is OV2 file?

OV2, known also as .OV2 file extension, is a points of interest (POI) database used by the very popular satellite navigation system TomTom. It contains important location data information that can be displayed on the device's display. OV2 files are basically plain text files coded using UTF-8 and are typically saved in GPX (GPS Exchange Format) format. Although the TomTom brand name is widely associated with OV2 files due to their popularity, other brands like Garmin also support this file type. [ ⏩ ] OV2 file extension

How to convert the file from KML to OV2?

To successfully convert the KML file to OV2, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.KML). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case OV2 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than OV2).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. KML to OV2. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting KML files to OV2 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension OV2, while before this step we had the KML file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new OV2 file, or not.

How can the file conversion help me?

The KML file conversion is useful in many situations. It often happens that you need to send someone a file (e.g. a graphic file) in a specific format, other than the one the selected file is currently encoded. In such a case, you should check whether it is possible to convert it (e.g. z KML to OV2), and if the conversion is possible - download the appropriate software.
