What is JXLStoKML?

JXLStoKML

JXLStoKML is a lightweight app for Windows that makes it super easy to convert XLS files into KML format. This is especially useful if your XLS files contain addresses because you can quickly turn those into waypoints using Google Earth or any other program that supports KML files.

Portable and Easy to Use

This app is portable, which means it won't leave any traces behind in your Windows Registry. You can just copy it onto a USB flash drive or any other device and take it with you. This way, you can do conversions anytime without having to install anything.

Java-Based Utility

Since JXLStoKML runs on Java, make sure you have the Java environment installed on your computer first. If not, the tool won’t work at all!

Uploading Files Made Simple

You can upload your files using the built-in browse button; however, there’s no “drag and drop” option here. To complete the conversion process, you need to choose where to save the file and give it a name. The tool even keeps a log for you that shows what happened during the process and any errors that popped up.

A Few Limitations

On the downside, there’s no option for setting a default target location or doing batch processing if you want to convert multiple XLS files at once. During testing, we found that JXLStoKML does its job pretty quickly and without causing errors. But keep in mind that like many Java tools, it can be a bit heavy on system resources which might slow down your computer.

A Solid Choice for Beginners

If you're looking for an easy-to-use software solution for converting XLS files to KML format, JXLStoKML is a great pick! It's especially friendly for beginners who may not be tech-savvy.
