Hi,<br>
Your kml files appear to be GoogleEarth web page links more then
actual vector layer files. I can open them in Google Earth (pro
that is free now). The bounding box is 3D and does not appear to
be usable in Qgis. The points are. <br>
When you click on the points in GoogleEarth, they send you to this
page:<br>

Hope this helps!<br>

<div style="font-size: 13px;color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:
arial,sans-serif;">I'm trying to display two KML layers of
U.S. Pacific coast littoral cells, one line and one polygon
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/55ce7ca2e4b01487cbfc711a" target="_top" rel="nofollow" link="external">https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/55ce7ca2e4b01487cbfc711a</a>),
in QGIS 2.10.1 without success.<br>
<br>
I am able to display the line file in Google Earth. I think I
once succeeded in opening the polygon file in Google Earth,
but subsequently have been unable to, so I may be mistaken. I
can't tell whether the polygon file just takes inordinately
long to open, or whether there is something wrong with it.<br>
<br>
I can add both files to QGIS as vector layers, but no lines or
polygons are visible. When I open the properties dialogues for
each, the style and labels tabs are blank. If I try to save
the layer as a shapefile, I get the error:<br>
<br>
<blockquote style='border-left:2px solid #CCCCCC;padding:0 1em' style="border-left:2px solid #CCCCCC;padding:0
1em">Export to vector file failed.<br>
Error: creation of layer failed (OGR error:Geometry type of
`3D Geometry Collection' not supported in shapefiles.<br>
Type can be overridden with a layer creation option<br>
of
SHPT=POINT/ARC/POLYGON/MULTIPOINT/POINTZ/ARCZ/POLYGONZ/MULTIPOINTZ.)<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
If I try to save the layer as a shape file using that layer
creation option, it fails with the error:<br>
<br>
<blockquote style='border-left:2px solid #CCCCCC;padding:0 1em' style="border-left:2px solid #CCCCCC;padding:0
1em">Export to vector file failed.<br>
Error: creation of layer failed (OGR error:Unknown SHPT
value of
`POINT/ARC/POLYGON/MULTIPOINT/POINTZ/ARCZ/POLYGONZ/MULTIPOINTZ'
passed to Shapefile layer creation. Creation aborted.)<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Can anyone suggest how I can open these files in QGIS? I have
successfully opened other KML files as layers in QGIS, so I
think the problem is with these specific files, not QGIS's
ability to handle KML files.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
