You can create your kml file online with scribblemaps  and download it to your computer. If you create lines and markers in the same file, you will get this error: ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" file.shp file.kml -skipfailures Warning 6: Normalized/laundered field name: 'description' to 'descriptio' Warning 6: Field timestamp create as date field, though DateTime requested.

In my last post I talk how to convert from kml to GeoJson Now, I want to load this file in a Spatial and Geographic Objects for PostgreSQL (postgis) I read in many sites that you can convert from osm 2 postgres, then I will try to convert to osm file with geojsontoosm. # sudo  npm install -g geojsontoosm npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/tmp/npm-15537-43d2f472/unpack-edff7974/package.json' npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/tmp/npm-15537-43d2f472/unpack-edff7974/package.json' npm ERR! enoent This is most likely not a problem with npm itself npm ERR! enoent and is related to npm not being able to find a file. npm ERR! enoent  To install, I used the git files: # git clone https://github.com/tyrasd/geojsontoosm.git # cd geojsontoosm # ./geojsontoosm  module.js:471     throw err;     ^ Error: Cannot find module 'jxon' Error: Cannot find module 'optimist' Error: Cannot find module 'geo...

To do it, you can import ogr from osgeo from osgeo import ogr def kml2geojson(kml_file):     drv = ogr.GetDriverByName('KML')     kml_ds = drv.Open(kml_file)     for kml_lyr in kml_ds:         for feat in kml_lyr:             print feat.ExportToJson() kml2geojson('/path/to/your.kml') But, if you try to run it, maybe you will see the following error: ImportError: No module named 'osgeo' This means that you need gdal libraries. If you try to install it with pip3 you will see the following: pip3 install gdal ... cc1plus: warning: command line option ‘-Wstrict-prototypes’ is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++     extensions/gdal_wrap.cpp:3168:22: fatal error: cpl_port.h: No such file or directory     compilation terminated.     error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1 We search which pakage includes cpl_port.h: apt-file search cpl_por...
