Layers KML/KMZ in Dielmo Maps allow for the visualization of geospatial data stored in KML (Keyhole Markup Language) or KMZ (a compressed KML file) files. These layers are ideal for representing geographic information in the form of points, lines, polygons, and labels on the platform.

Generating KML/KMZ Layers with QGIS

If you want to create KML/KMZ layers to use in Dielmo Maps, you can follow these steps using the open-source software QGIS:

1. Data Preparation: Gather the geospatial data you want to represent in your KML/KMZ layer in a format compatible with QGIS, such as vector data (points, lines, polygons) or label information.
2. Loading Data into QGIS: Open QGIS and load the geospatial data you want to use in your project. To do this, you can use the “Add Layer” option in the “Layer” menu and select the option corresponding to the type of data you are using.
3. Preparation of Projection and Extension: Ensure that your data is in the correct projection and that the project extension in QGIS matches the extension of the data you want to export as a KML/KMZ layer.
4. Generating the KML/KMZ Layer: Once your data is loaded and prepared in QGIS, you can export it as a KML/KMZ layer following these steps:
   • Right-click on the layer in the layer panel. Select the “Save As…” option. In the export dialog box, choose “Keyhole Markup Language (KML)” or “Keyhole Markup Language zipped (KMZ)” as the output format.
   • Define the destination path and other export parameters as needed.
   • Click “OK” to export your data as a KML/KMZ layer.
5. Uploading to Dielmo Maps: Once you have generated your KML/KMZ layer in QGIS, you can upload it to Dielmo Maps to visualize and use it in your projects. Use the layer upload option in Dielmo Maps to import your KML/KMZ layer and start taking advantage of its features.

By following these steps, you can generate KML/KMZ layers with QGIS and use them in Dielmo Maps to effectively represent your geospatial data in an attractive and visually appealing manner.
