A KMZ file loader for Leaflet Maps
_For a working example see one of the following demos:_

## How to use
1. **include CSS & JavaScript**
```html
<head>
...
<style> html, body, #map { height: 100%; width: 100%; padding: 0; margin: 0; } </style>
<!-- Leaflet (JS/CSS) -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/leaflet@1.6.0/dist/leaflet.css">
<script src="https://unpkg.com/leaflet@1.6.0/dist/leaflet.js"></script>
<!-- Leaflet-KMZ -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/leaflet-kmz@latest/dist/leaflet-kmz.js"></script>
...
</head>
```
2. **choose a div container used for the slippy map**
```html
<body>
...
<div id="map"></div>
...
</body>
```
3. **create your first simple “leaflet-kmz” slippy map**
```html
<script>
var map = L.map('map', {
preferCanvas: true // recommended when loading large layers.
});
map.setView(new L.LatLng(43.5978, 12.7059), 5);
var OpenTopoMap = L.tileLayer('https://{s}.tile.opentopomap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
maxZoom: 17,
attribution: 'Map data: © <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a>, <a href="http://viewfinderpanoramas.org">SRTM</a> | Map style: © <a href="https://opentopomap.org">OpenTopoMap</a> (<a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>)',
opacity: 0.90
});
OpenTopoMap.addTo(map);
// Instantiate KMZ layer (async)
var kmz = L.kmzLayer().addTo(map);
kmz.on('load', function(e) {
control.addOverlay(e.layer, e.name);
// e.layer.addTo(map);
});
// Add remote KMZ files as layers (NB if they are 3rd-party servers, they MUST have CORS enabled)
kmz.load('https://raruto.github.io/leaflet-kmz/examples/regions.kmz');
kmz.load('https://raruto.github.io/leaflet-kmz/examples/capitals.kmz');
kmz.load('https://raruto.github.io/leaflet-kmz/examples/globe.kmz');
var control = L.control.layers(null, null, { collapsed:false }).addTo(map);
</script>
```
**Notes:**
- supported file formats: **.kmz**, **.kml**
- to be able to use Google files (eg. through Google My Maps) you **MUST** use a valid third-party kml proxy server
