A Java library to ease creation and manipulation of KML files. A KML file can be loaded as simply as this: Kml kmlRoot = new KMLParser().parse(new File(filename)); Alternatively a Kml document can be built up programmatically, eg by creating new Placemark(), new Folder() etc and adding them to the root, or other Folders.

Kml.toKML() produces the KML document.

KML.toUpdateKML() will produce a KML document representing the updates since toUpdateKML() was last called.
