There isn't an API for this, but you can use the survexport tool which
should have been installed along with survex.  This uses the same export
code as aven does, and should support all the same formats and options.
If you find anything aven can do and survexport can't (or vice versa)
please report it.

For example:

    survexport --clamp-to-ground --passages cave.3d cave.kml

The survexport tool was added in 1.2.35 (released 2018-07-03) so if you
don't have it, check if you need to upgrade.  If you want to export
passage polygons you'll want at least 1.2.37 for some survexport
bugfixes.
