What is the best way to generate KML files in C#?

Question

What is the best way to generate KML files using C#?

Is there a class library that I can use? I have looked and struggled to find anything interesting.

libkml doesn't have a C# implementation or wrapper.

Any help would be great.

Solution 1

SharpKML - library based on Google's C++ implementation of libkml

Solution 2

Here are ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​some:

• http://code.google.com/p/kml-library/
• http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/Google_Earth_KML_Files.aspx

Your 2nd and 3rd link seem to be dead.

they dont seem to be dead they ARE dead

And your first link points to libkml which, as stated in the question, doesn't have an interop wrapper

Indignantly followed the link in high dudgeon, but you are correct - I must have been really tired the first time I looked. My apologies. Have you tried that implementation? What's the quality like?
