I'm exploring interoperability between Rhino and ArcGIS Earth.
I exported a simple 3D model from Rhino as a KMZ file, expecting to visualise it in ArcGIS Earth.
The KMZ file opens successfully in ArcGIS Earth, but the model geometry is not displayed. I confirmed that the same KMZ displays correctly in Google Earth, so the export itself appears to be valid.
As a workaround, I switched to a glTF-based workflow, which works well in ArcGIS Earth. However, I'm curious whether KMZ should also be supported.
Is this an expected limitation of ArcGIS Earth, or is there a recommended workflow or export setting in Rhino that allows KMZ geometry to be displayed correctly?
Has anyone experienced the same behaviour or found a solution?
Environment
- Rhino: 8
- ArcGIS Earth: 2.7.1.4720
- KMZ exported directly from Rhino
- Google Earth: Geometry displays correctly
- ArcGIS Earth: KMZ opens, but geometry is not displayed
Thanks in advance!
