Convert vector layer to other file format.

Coordinate refrence system (CRS) is not changing. If output format is ESRI Shapefile, encoding of attributes cast to UTF-8.

Input:

  • Vector layer file or ZIP archive compatible with GDAL library. List of supported formats

  • Name of output format: ESRI Shapefile, MapInfo TAB, GeoJSON, GPKG, DXF, FlatGeobuf.

Note

If uploaded file has incompatible format (for example, single SHP file) an error message will appear.

Output:

  • ZIP archive with vector layers
