Open SKP File
An SKP file extension is used for SketchUp software, an easy-to-use 3D conceptual design program.
The SKP file is basically a three-dimensional model and contains wireframes, shadows, edge effects, and textures.
SKP files can also store components that can be inserted into your document, while being reusable for other projects.
These SKP file components can be created by the user and can be imported into a document to insert into your model.
SketchUp software has been owned by Trimble since 2012, having passed through Google from 2006 until its sale to Trimble. The software was originally developed by Last Software.
A particular feature of the software, and of the SKP files, is that the created models can be placed in Google Earth or shared with the 3D Warehouse function.
Backup copies made of SKP files are saved as 'SKP Backup', that is, they keep the same extension.
To work with SKP files, you must have the following software installed on your system:
