Field guide: KML to CSV Converter
Years of field placemarks live inside KML files — site visits pinned in Google Earth, customer locations drawn in My Maps — and one day the data needs to be a spreadsheet: mail-merge, CRM import, analysis, or just a list someone can sort. This converter unpacks every Placemark into a CSV row: name, latitude, longitude, description and each ExtendedData field as its own column.
Lines and polygons get a representative coordinate (their midpoint vertex) so route and boundary placemarks still produce usable rows rather than vanishing — the geometry type column tells you which rows those are. As with every tool in this set, parsing is client-side: the KML of your customer pins never transits anyone's server on its way to becoming an Excel sheet.
Field tips
- Google Earth: right-click a folder → Save Place As → KML — converting a whole folder of pins to a sheet takes under a minute end-to-end.
- My Maps descriptions often pack 'phone: x, status: y' into one blob — after converting, Excel's Text-to-Columns or formulas split them into real fields.
- Round-trip check: load your output CSV in our CSV Point Mapper — if the points land where the pins were, the extraction is verified.
Records are stored only in this browser (localStorage) — export regularly. This tool aids field documentation; it does not replace your agency's official inspection procedures or engineering judgment.

Frequently asked questions
Which columns does the CSV contain?+
geometry (Point/LineString/Polygon), latitude, longitude, then every property found across the file: name, description, and each distinct ExtendedData field becomes a column (blank where a placemark lacks it). Column order is stable, headers are spreadsheet-safe, commas and quotes are properly escaped.
What coordinates do lines and polygons get?+
A representative vertex (the midpoint of the coordinate list) — enough to sort, join and roughly map row-per-feature data. If you need full vertex dumps of a track, convert via GeoJSON instead, or use our GPX tools for recorded tracks where per-point rows are the natural shape.
Can Excel open the result directly?+
Yes — it's RFC-4180 CSV with a header row; double-click opens in Excel, Sheets and LibreOffice. One Excel caveat: very long numeric-looking strings (phone numbers) can get mangled by auto-formatting; import via Data → From Text and set those columns to Text if that bites.
How do I convert KMZ to CSV?+
KMZ = zipped KML: rename to .zip, extract doc.kml, open that here. Placemark data converts identically; the only KMZ content that can't follow is embedded imagery (icons, photo overlays), which has no spreadsheet representation anyway.
