Mapping

Working With KMZ Files in Google Earth

I use Google Earth to show all of the location points that I have created. The reason for this is that it doesn’t have the limitation of maximum number of points that Google maps has. I can drag a .kmz file onto the desktop in Google Earth and it will load the points and show them on the maps. Initially when I did this it showed me nice icons and there were no placemark names appearing on the screen.

Note: all screenshots were taken from my Samsung tablet. I have been saving my location points to Maps.me when we travel using my Samsung tablet. As I only download the points once a year it is very easy to forget the method I use to export my points. Each year I create a new bookmark set, for example this year I created a set named Victoria-2019 and this is where I saved all of my local points.
