Suitable for use in Google Earth, QGIS, and other KML-capable software.ĬAVEAT: at present, the KML export uses for its coordinates the "Representative Point" from any place that has published locations.
The CSV format is well-documented on the Library of Congress Digital Formats website.ĭownload the latest version at Keyhole Markup Language (KML). We use the gzip compression algorithm to reduce file size for download. Some CSV readers (e.g., Microsoft Excel) assume or default to ASCII encoding for CSV, which can lead to the mangling of Roman characters with diacritics as well as characters in non-Roman scripts. We use UTF-8 character encoding for the text in these files. The structure and contents of these files are documented in a README file.

The file named will always get you the most recent version. JSON is a widely used, well-known format that is popular for use in web applications and other programming tasks.
