DEF Line Parameters
The following DEF line parameters can be specified for user-defined features. They do not apply to writer-specific feature type names, such as “Placemark” or “Folder”.
DEF line parameters that affect Placemark styling correspond to a single <Style> element that will be created for each feature type. All features with that feature type will have their <styleUrl> element set to refer to the feature type <Style> element. Note: if a given feature already has a kml_style_url attribute, its value will take precedence.
