Quick answer: Open the Yemen War KMZ on an interactive Google satellite globe with its original point icons, lines and polygon styles, or download the converted GeoJSON for GIS workflows.
About this dataset
Explore a styled Yemen conflict map with points, lines, polygons and custom icons. Download the original KMZ or converted GeoJSON.
Sourced from the Yemen War map on Google My Maps, this hosted dataset contains point locations, line features and polygon areas with source colors, transparency and custom symbols. The interactive preview loads the KMZ by default to preserve its embedded icons, displayed over Google satellite imagery in globe mode. The KMZ contains 1,089 placemarks and 30 embedded PNG images; the converted GeoJSON contains 1,084 features. These files are a snapshot of the source map, not a live conflict feed.

FAQ
Which file loads in the map preview?
The original Yemen War.kmz loads automatically over Google satellite imagery in globe mode, retaining supported source colors, widths, transparency and embedded icons.
Why does the GeoJSON look different from the KMZ?
The converted GeoJSON retains styling properties but does not contain all custom images embedded in the KMZ. It also has 1,084 features compared with 1,089 KMZ placemarks, so the files are not identical copies.
Is this a live map of the Yemen war?
No. These downloads are a snapshot of the linked Google My Maps source, rather than a live feed. See the original map for its context and any subsequent updates.
