KML, or Keyhole Markup Language, is a geospatial data collection used in Google Earth and other Google services. TIFF, also known as Tagged Image File Format, is a file format for transferring, storing, and displaying raster images. This format is commonly used for scanned aerial photography and maps, as well as digital satellite imagery and other geographic data.
GeoTIFF is a metadata standard in the public domain that enables the embedding of georeferencing information in a TIFF file. This additional information encompasses projections, coordinate systems, ellipsoids, datums, and all other essential elements for establishing the precise spatial reference for the file.
